Some templates and ideas for making marking more time efficient for teachers.
It includes generic targets that can be set for any creative writing or any reading analysis task.
Also contains a writing wheel which is useful for self, peer or teacher assessment.
Also includes a literacy tracker that can be used by all departments across a school to check that students are maintaining high standards of literacy across all the different subject disciplines.
Using this marking code will speed up your marking without compromising the quality and specificity of your marking because it moves the time-consuming job of writing the targets from you to the students.
Your marking will look something like this:
WWW
1.
3.
7.
EBI
4.
10.
15.
Read the work and select 3 ways they have met the generic success criteria (WWW) and 3 ways they can improve further (EBI). The students have to then write out the target before trying to meet the target. The 20 criteria start with the basics of using P.E.E. to more advanced targets such as exploring more than one interpretation and commenting on the overall structure of the text. They should work with any text.
Also includes a version for A level English literature.
