Why is &#8216;not completing&#8217; a part of the  task even an option? Rhonda spoke passionately about the &#8216;must haves&#8217;. The parts of a task that are required. Over the years I have continued to use a &#8216;Must Haves&#8217; rubric for tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rubric has 3 columns<em>:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RETHINK: A list of things that will not be accepted such as poor punctuation &amp; spelling, unsubstantiated facts<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MUST HAVES: A list of items expected to be in the final product<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BUMP IT UP: A list of ways to go further than the base line expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have found that it works best if I explain a task and state the general expectations and allow a couple of lessons for students to begin working their way through the task, before working as a class to write the rubric. If I try writing it too soon, students are not as  articulate in expressing what the rubric should include. It must be a collaborative effort with everyone agreeing on the final rubric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a class we agree on the final rubric and print a copy for each class member. Students then highlight each must have as they complete it, and self-assess the &#8216;Bump It Up&#8217; options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have recently added a couple of statements at the bottom for students to complete &#8211; <em>I am proud of&#8230;<\/em>and <em> A goal for the future&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to remind the students that sometimes the &#8216;Must haves&#8217; are enough&#8230;but many still look towards self-improvement by working on the &#8216;Bump it up&#8217; suggestions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Give it a go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-2f5df235-112f-4b73-8689-b13fedc874bc\" href=\"https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric-MUST-HAVES.docx\">Rubric-MUST-HAVES<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric-MUST-HAVES.docx\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-2f5df235-112f-4b73-8689-b13fedc874bc\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"510\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric-510x365.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric-510x365.png 510w, https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric-300x215.png 300w, https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric-768x550.png 768w, https:\/\/mrsbarkerstearoom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Rubric.png 1146w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 510px) 100vw, 510px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more about Rhonda Bondie&#8217;s work here https:\/\/www.alled.org\/about-us\/our-team\/ <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rhonda Bondie&#8217;s presentation, in Sydney with Project Zero a few years ago, really challenged my thinking around rubrics.
