Homework Journal Rubric Strong Journaling: · Journal demonstrates thoughtful engagement with the text, strong reading comprehension and includes astute observations about the text. Focus is on learning: to test, theorize, experiment, flesh-out, develop deeper ideas about the text. · Every sentence is focused on trying to figure out what things mean · Does close reading of every quote · Notes ways the author is using language to express deeper meaning (i.e., literary devices) · Tries to figure out what those literary devices mean · Frequently asks questions and makes multiple attempts to answer them · Has multiple theories about what something means and looks deeply into quotes to try to figure out the most plausible answers · Works to think about original and interesting possible meanings · The writer clearly explains their ideas and the thinking behind their ideas. · Analysis is developed and specific. · While not perfectly polished, the writing is clear and easy to read. · The journal meets all requirements (including any specific directions for each individual entry)   Poor Journaling: · Summarizes (explains what happened in the text) · Quotes vaguely have a purpose · States obvious relationships and ideas · Does little or no work to try to understand deeper ideas (no questions or proposed answers) · Lacks any close reading · Does not consider the author’s use of language · Says things for the sake of saying them and not to try to learn · Is repetitive · Does not meet requirements (such as length or any other specific directions)
