Peer review is an excellent way for students to read each others' work and offer constructive criticism to help each other improve as writers.
Here is the protocol (in other words, the way to do it):
Using the RUBRIC as a guide..
1. swap papers with a classmate.
2. read classmate's writing once SILENTLY (no questions/comments yet)
3. re-read classmate's writing. jot down specific comments/suggestions that will help the writer improve (we will practice using a form, next time you can use post-its)
4. discuss the comments/suggestions with the classmate.
5. clarify (writer asks the reader questions so he/she is clear as to HOW they can improve.
Our written work is due November 25 (the day before Thanksgiving break).
