Peer Paragraph Scoring Exchange paragraphs with a different group. Read over the paragraphs. In your group, discuss each one and

give it a score. At the bottom, state why you gave it the score that you did.

4=Topic sentence makes a clear and sophisticated argument. Evidence (at least 3 pieces) is very specific and relevant to the argument. Language is lively and persuasive. Conventions are perfect.

3=Topic sentence is clear but simple. Evidence (at least 2 pieces) is specific and relevant. Language is accurate. There are some convention errors, but they don’t distract from the ideas.

2=Topic sentence is present but not entirely clear. Evidence (at least 2 pieces) is general but relevant.) Language is mostly accurate though some may be awkward. Convention errors are very noticeable, but the ideas still come through with some work from the reader.

1=Topic sentence is missing or unrecognizable. Evidence is lacking or not relevant. Language use is awkward and confusing. Convention errors make it so that readers are not able to understand the ideas of the writing.

Follow a PatternPattern One: Topic/Issue +

Opinion/Position + (because, for, since, etc.) + supporting reason 1 + supporting reason 2.

• Example: Achilles is clearly from Sparta because of his concern for Chrysies, his fierceness in battle, and his inner conflict over choosing a life as a farmer or warrior.

Page 16: World Literature

Follow a PatternPattern Two: Supporting reason 1 +

supporting reason 2 + (therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, etc.) + Topic/Issue + Opinion/Position.

Example: Achilles argued concern for the fairness of war spoils, he chose to remove himself from the war when his voice was not heard, and he faced inner conflict about being a warrior or a farmer, therefore, Achilles is from Athens.
