Writing Rubric
![Page 24: PICASSO Preview July 30, 2010](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56812ebe550346895d945ec0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Writing Rubrics• Young writers can be described in terms of writing behaviors they
exhibit. Children go through distinct stages of development as they learn to write. The stages are characterized by common, observable writing behaviors.
• The following stages A-D reflect the characteristics of young emerging writers.
• Cobb County Kindergarten students are assessed in their development of the writing process every nine weeks.
• When the student has successfully moved through the four emergent stages, he/she would then be assessed using the Cobb County Kindergarten Writing Rubic. The rubric should be used as the student gains competency in the writing process.

Cobb County Kindergarten Writing Stages
Child’s name_________________________________________ Date
_____________________Stage A
Pictorial WriterWriting is drawing or manipulating objects.The Alphabet awareness/letters may be known but are not applied.The “story” can be told with the child’s oral-language.
Stage B
The Squiggler/Verbal StoryTellerWriting is represented in scribbles or patternsLetters may be written randomly.Oral stories and pictures may become more elaborate.A connection is beginning to be understood between written symbols and the idea of writing a “story”.There is an attempt to record letters and numbers as familiarity with them is developed.
Stage C
The Letter Shaker/CopierRandom letters and child’s name are often incorporated into the “story.”Letters and words posted in the environment are often copied.The oral/pictorial “story” often incorporates random letters or copied words.Distinguishing between letters and words may not exist.
Stage D
The Sound Maker/LabelerThere is evidence of beginning understanding of letter/sound connections.Parts of the picture “story” may be labeled in writing and referenced in the oral story.The concept of story is beginning to be developed.Simple “stories” are conceived and told.Writing begins to reflect the separation of words by using spaces.

Special Education Services: Specialized Instruction
•Special Education services are defined as providing “specialized instruction”.•Specialized instruction can consist of strategies that target individual student learning issues…•Or it can consist of specialized research-based programs that address learning issues within the co-taught classroom or small group special education classroom.
![Page 34: PICASSO Preview July 30, 2010](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56812ebe550346895d945ec0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
What is required for Students With Disabilities (SWD)?
• Many SWD have significant deficits in literacy skills (reading, writing, spelling, language, etc.).
• Data from CCSD indicates a large number of SWD going from elementary to middle to high school with very low reading skills.
• When a SWD’s overall reading level is 2 or more grade levels below, the student needs to receive intensive intervention through a specialized instruction reading program – to prevent this consequence.
![Page 35: PICASSO Preview July 30, 2010](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56812ebe550346895d945ec0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Essential Question: What are we doing differently to provide intensive interventions for SWD who are
2 or more years below grade level in reading?
• K-3 Phonological Awareness and Word Work: (for both co-taught and small group) Fundations
• Small Group K-3 Guided Reading Writing: – Targeted Reading Intervention and Exploring Writing
• 4th-5th All Literacy Areas: the Language! Comprehensive Literacy Program
![Page 36: PICASSO Preview July 30, 2010](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56812ebe550346895d945ec0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Resources and Support
• To provide continuity, the Special Education Department has specialized instruction programs for reading in elementary, middle and high schools.
• There is an urgency to increase reading skills for SWD before they enter middle school.
• Specialized Instruction Consultants are available to provide training and support for every school.
• Contact Debbie Lozo for more information
