This week we want to share a link to a blog that speaks to the power of Success Criteria when presented in a rubric. While there, you can also check out Marzano’s Levels of Understanding rubrics.
We know that the blog includes an elementary math example, (counting to 100) , but it is a good concrete example of the use of Success Criteria that can be applied with all grade levels and content.
Below we've included 4 other examples of Success Criteria rubrics for a variety of content areas and grade levels.
Science: (You might want to rework this into student friendly language so that students could self-reflect on their level of learning.)
Level
|
Description
|
Level 4
Above and Beyond
|
Student accomplishes level 3 AND goes beyond in some
significant way, such as:
Explaining
unexpected results
Judging
the value of the investigation
Suggesting
additional relevant investigations
|
Level 3
Complete and Correct
|
Student analyzes and interprets data correctly and
completely, AND draws a conclusion compatible with the analysis of the data
|
Level 2
Almost There
|
Student notes pattern or trends, BUT does so incompletely
|
Level 1
On Your Way
|
Student attempts an interpretation, BUT ideas are
illogical, OR ideas show a lack of understanding
|
Level 0
|
Student’s response is missing, irrelevant, or illegible.
|
x
|
Student had no opportunity to respond
|
Math:
Learning Target: I can solve equations that include
rational numbers
Descriptor
|
Proficiency Scale
|
3
|
I
can always or almost always correctly solve one-step equations that include
rational numbers
(fractions, decimals, and
integers)
I
remember to check my answers for accuracy
|
2
|
I
can solve one-step equations that include whole numbers
Sometimes
I can solve one-step equations that include rational numbers.
(fractions, decimals, and
integers)
I
mostly recognize which operation to “undo” first
|
1
|
I
am still working to solve one-step equations that include whole numbers
I
get stuck on which operation to “undo” first
|
Language Arts:
Learning Target: I can summarize a story
Success Criteria (How I will know that I hit the Learning
Target?)
4 ~ Exceeds the Target
My summary includes ALL of the following:
Written
in paragraph form
Setting
Main
Characters
The
Problem
Four
important details from the beginning, middle, and end of the story that lead
to the resolution of the main character’s problem
Resolution
|
3 ~ Meets the Target
My summary includes ALL of the following:
Setting
Main
Characters
The
Problem
Three
important details from the beginning, middle, and end of the story that lead
to the resolution of the main character’s problem
Resolution
|
2 ~ Close to meeting the Target
I included at least three of the requirements above
|
1 ~ Not close enough to meeting the Target
I included less than three of the requirements above
|
Let us know if you experiment with writing your Success Criteria in rubric form. It would be wonderful to have more examples to share out with colleagues.
