Rubric for Students Writing on Classroom Blog

This year I have my 6th graders writing and maintaining a classroom blog. Each week a different student is expected to write blog posts. The first quarter+ each student just wrote on the blog with few requirements. Obviously I proof what they read before it goes live. I wanted them to be familiar with the blogger format and get used to the idea that their families were seeing their posts.

However, now that each student has become familiar with the program, I want them to have more requirements. I've created this rubric to grade my students. After all, why not meet some writing standards?!

They will be graded on title, text, pictures (which they are responsible for taking), spelling/grammar, including their name, and frequency of posts.

You can download my rubric for free by clicking on the picture below.

If you have any questions about how I run my classroom blog, feel free to ask them below!
