Writing Project Week 4: Feedback session

Learning Goals

At the end of the lesson you will know how to:

• use a rubric to give peer feedback,

• spot strengths and improvements in a text,

• give helpful feedback,

• begin revising your own essay.

Plan for today

We split the lesson in 2:

• 1 half - working session

• 1 half - peer feedback

What order would you prefer?

Your Feedback Tool: The Rubric

We will use the rubric from the Module Guide to evaluate each other's work.

You use the rubric for comments, not grades.

How to Give Good Feedback

Structure

3 Rules

✔ One strength ✔ One improvement ✔ One suggestion

1. Be specific: e.g. "Your introduction is clear." 2. Be helpful: suggest how to improve. 3. Be respectful: focus on the writing, not the person.

Peer Feedback – Instructions

• Swap essays with a partner. • Read the text carefully. • Use the rubric to guide your feedback. • Write: 1 strength 2 improvement points 1 concrete suggestion

Feedback Time

Work with a partner. Give feedback using the rubric.

What is one strong point in your partner’s essay? Write your answer in the box.

Reflect on Feedback

What feedback did you receive? What will you improve first?

Create a Revision Plan

Think about your revision: What will you change? How will you do it? Write your notes.

Work Time: Start Revising

Begin revising your essay based on the peer feedback. Use this time to improve your writing!
