As I dig deeper into the "why" behind the program, I notice that I am having a difficult time assessing the students' work.  A traditional letter grade seems inappropriate to me for most of the graphic organizers.  I am going to try and align the work with state goals and have the kids revisit the graphic organizers until they can meet standards.  Is this realistic?  Is there a better way?  Am I going to be making a million copies?  I am just really struggling with the idea of giving something like "golden lines" a point value.  What constitutes an A? a D?  Help!

Keywords: assessment, plugged-in, plugged-in to reading, standards
