This document contains a rubric for peer reviewing creative writing with four criteria: content, vocabulary, grammar, and spelling/punctuation. Each criterion is scored on a scale from 0 to 15 points. For content, the rubric evaluates creativity, relevance, plot progression/detail, genre clarity, and organization. For vocabulary, it evaluates word choice variety and appropriateness. For grammar, it evaluates sentence structure variety and errors. And for spelling/punctuation, it evaluates errors and their impact on comprehension. The rubric provides descriptors to guide scoring as sophisticated, competent, average, or not yet competent for each criterion.
