What are rubrics and anchor papers?
Exemplars material includes rubrics and anchor papers. Our assessment rubrics provide teachers with a clear set of gudelines for assessing student work and reveal areas that need improvement, meet the standard or exceed expectations. Student rubrics provide students with a concrete understanding of what works meets today’s standards and why. Anchor papers are task specific and identify distinctions to look for when assessing students. These can also be used to promote student self- and peer-assessment.
