This grading tool from STEP UP is designed to evaluate Kindergarten Informative/Explanatory writing and drawing skills. It rates student work across four developmental levels—Advanced, Proficient, Basic, and Below Basic—and includes illustrative student drawing examples for each tier. Progression is measured across five core criteria: Organization, Ideas, Word Choice, Sentence Fluency, and Conventions. Ultimately, the rubric provides a structured framework to track foundational literacy milestones, ranging from initial scribbles to multi-sentence structures with correct spacing and phonetic spelling.
