Writing Rubrics for the PARCC Assessment
August 2014Vincent Segalini
DISCLAIMER!
• The writing rubrics for the PARCC assessment were created to score on-demand writing tasks for an assessment. They are more general than writing rubrics that would be used to score writing in the classroom. Remember:– These rubrics are holistic.– These rubrics are not grade specific (other than
grade 3).
Writing on the PARCC Assessment
• Students will write three responses as part of the Performance Based Assessment (PBA).– A literary analysis task– A narrative task– A research simulation task
• ALL students will definitely write a narrative story for the narrative task.
Writing on the PARCC Assessment
• The two other writing tasks (LAT and RST) will be a combination of:– Informative/explanatory writing– Opinion (3-5) or argumentative writing (6-11)
• It is not guaranteed students will write one informative piece and one argumentative piece. They may write two informative pieces. It is improbable that they would write two opinion/argumentative pieces.
Rubrics
• There are 6 different rubrics:– Grade 3 LAT/RST (Informative/Explanatory and
Opinion) Rubric– Grade 3 Narrative Rubric– Grades 4-5 LAT/RST (Informative/Explanatory and
Opinion) Rubric– Grades 4-5 Narrative Rubric– Grades 6-11 LAT/RST (Informative/Explanatory and
Argumentative) Rubric– Grades 6-11 Narrative Rubric
Grade 3
• There are not 4 score points for grade 3 because third grade writing lacks the sophistication to differentiate between the highest score points.
Scoring
• Students will receive a score for each construct, such as 4,4,3.

LAT/RST Rubric(Informative/Explanatory and Argumentative)
Keys for Reading Comprehension
• “…ideas stated explicitly and inferentially…”• Scorers need to see that a student
understands the texts. – This would include evidence of understanding,
including direct references, inferences, etc.

LAT/RST Rubric(Informative/Explanatory and Argumentative)
Keys for Written Expression
• These scores are weighted 3 times. For example, if a student receives a 3 for Written Expression, it is weighted as a 9.
• Students must respond to all parts of the prompt.
• They must write in the specified discipline (narrative, essay, etc.).
Keys to Written Expression
• The three key ideas:– Respond to the prompt appropriately, using
evidence to show understanding.– Organization– Style
• Scorers will ensure that the style and organization is effective for the specified genre of writing.

Keys to Written Conventions
• There will be errors. They key is whether or not these errors impact meaning.
