A fully automated leveling system for writing. This system gives you an accurate grade for each child’s written work. Great for moderating writing too. Instructions: Read a child’s piece of narrative then work down the list of writing objectives. If a student achieves a specific learning objective, put a ‘1’ in the column. This makes the writing objective turn grey. If the student hasn’t achieved the objective, put a zero in the column. This makes the writing objective turn yellow. Leave a ‘dash’ if you want the row to stay the same. The chart totals the '1’s and tells you the exact writing level is PLUS it shows you what objectives still need to be achieved.
