Evaluation ladders (essays)

This is a template for an evaluation ladder. Each ladder has a point which you can fill in or for stretch and challenge have students complete. They then have room for evidence and explain. Ideally they should be able to fit this into this as an exam paragraph shouldn’t really be longer than what can be fitted here (dependent on handwriting size of course).

You can also print this out as A3 as a table exercise, and rotate it so one group writes a point then the next has to evidence. This leaves more room for students to work and collaborate.

Good tool to use to ensure that students are writing complete paragraphs and understanding a point is not worth a point unless you evidence and explain it.

As for linking, this is lightly greyed out and has a smaller area, this is more high level student as not all students can manage to do this, I always advise as long as you PEE then you are good, but the option is there.

There is a topic, student name and mark box so you can do some peer marking or have it as a homework exercise, though its also a good revision tool in upcoming revision sessions - exams are looming ever closer!
