Evaluation

 

Video Evaluation

Here is the rubric that your teacher will use to grade your video and newspaper article. Your teacher will evaluate each element and give you the points that you deserve. We encourage you to strive for excellence to ensure that you can get the best grade possible. It is probably not a bad idea to print these rubrics out and refer to them as you create your products, so that you can see what you need to do in order to do well on the project. Good luck!
