FSA Informative Essay Rubric (Student Friendly for Peer and Self Editing)
I created this rubric to help my fourth graders understand the FSA rubric and to teach them how to use it and to peer edit each others essay. So far, it has worked miracles!

It is really cool to watch them take charge of their writing and I think it makes it so much easier for them to write when they know what I

Media projects are highly motivational for students and they are wonderful to see and share the results, but are often too hard to grade.

A rubric that balances both areas is not only necessary, but it is very beneficial for the teacher as well as the students.

Wax Museum Documents
My students completed a wax museum project in which they read a biography about a historical person of their choice. Then, they created several pieces such as a stamp, a portrait, gathering artifacts having to do with the person, and designing a costume to wear. Students then put all the pieces together on a tri-fold board and set up their boards, in costume, in the gym. Lower grades of the school then visited the wax museum with their classes. Students recited a short memorized speech whenever
