Elementary Rubrics & Assessments
I created the Family Drawing Assessment as a tool to track the development and change in a students drawing ability, use of space and color, and over all creative thinking skills. Students complete the Assessment three times over the course of the school year, generally in September, January, and May.

In that way, I am able to tailor Units and projects to reflect their genuine interests and needs, and give voice to the students for engaged learning.
