Sweet Score--Skylark, Gene Davis (1960) The rubric below is one that I created by synthesizing (combining) sources elsewhere (handouts from workshops, Internet sites, and my own observations/experience as an AP Reader ). Unfortunately, I do not have all the necessary attribution, as I have been adding to it and subtracting from it over many years. I want to thank all those anonymous sources for their input. (Always give credit to others when appropriate.) This rubric is not a product of The College Board (the company that creates the AP Exam), although it contains language from College Board rubrics, as well as the valuable input I receive yearly from fellow AP Readers of the essays. Cut and paste the text after the asterisks into a word document, print the item out, and always bring it to class (keep in notebook).
Current assignments may be on the first through third pages. Ignore the black dates above the posts. Scan posts for work with dates close to now (dates WITHIN the posts). The posts are in no particular order, so scroll through the first three pages. Keep copies of all your files on your laptop and in your binder. If I collect an assignment, not having a printed version will result in a grade of zero. Assignments could be collected at ANY time.
