Rubrics are a great way to communicate project expectations with students. Rubrics also provide students with the necessary feedback so that they can reflect on future growth. I discovered a great blog by Alice Keeler the other day that offers a pretty slick Google Sheets Rubric. You can customize the rubric categories, and once you input a student's individual score per category, it will automatically tally the overall score. You can make a copy of this Google Sheet by clicking here.
