What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students reread a draft and use self-review or feedback to judge how well it meets its purpose and writing goals. They identify what works and choose revisions that improve effectiveness.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students can state the purpose and goals for a draft, then point to places that do or do not meet them. They use specific feedback to choose and explain useful revisions.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may focus only on spelling and punctuation instead of judging whether the draft meets its purpose. They may accept every suggestion, reject criticism, or label writing effective without citing specific evidence.
How to Assess It
- Exit ticket: Ask students to name their draft’s purpose, quote one effective sentence, and identify one revision that would better meet that purpose.
