    They essay clearly addresses assignment. The essay has a thesis—a single, central point that is interesting,
    original, striking and substantial.  The central point is developed in the essay through well-chosen, appropriate,
    concrete details that show originality and freshness.  Author shows rather than merely tells. Generalizations are
    defended. Arguments are logical.

    central point. Transitions help the paper flow smoothly.  Introductory paragraph(s) is (are) interesting and
    appropriate. Concluding paragraph is satisfying. The essay has an effective title.
     
     
     
     

     
    PARAGRAPHS  
    Paragraphs are logically organized, their coherence marked by explicit transitions.  Each supporting paragraph
    has a main/controlling idea, which is expressed in a topic sentence. Each paragraph contains specific
    supporting ideas, examples, and explanations explicitly connected to its main idea. In supporting paragraphs,
    main ideas expressed in topic sentences help explain the thesis of the essay.
     
     
     
     
     
    GRAMMAR, SPELLING, MECHANICS  
    Grammatical errors are minor and infrequent and do not interfere with comprehension. Spelling and
    punctuation are generally accurate.
