You may use this Checklist for prewriting and writing your first draft. Your score will be based on this Checklist. My story will be very good if I have thoughtful and specific content and organize my writing. That means I should follow the directions given in the writing prompt; create a manageable—not too small, not too big—plot with a beginning, middle, and end; organize my actions/events so there is a sense of story where each action/event in the story leads to the next one; elaborate important events by describing characters, settings, and actions through the use of specific words, descriptive/sensory details, and purposeful dialogue; organize my writing in paragraphs; use words that help show how the events in the story are connected. My story will be very good if I have an interesting style. That means I should show that I care about my story; use words and phrases that help the reader imagine the characters, setting, and events; use different types and lengths of sentences. My story will be very good if I follow conventions in writing. That means I should follow the rules of correct English usage (for example, correct pronouns for subjects, verb endings, subject-verb agreement), spell words correctly, use correct capitalization, use correct punctuation (periods, commas, quotation marks, question marks), write complete sentences, show where new paragraphs begin. 549401-10403000042 PAGE 4 SERIAL# SECURE MATERIALS−DO NOT COPY WRITING TO TELL A STORY: Session One Grade 4: Approved Materials Materials Needed Materials Available Grade 4 Writing Test Booklet Yellow, Lined Scratch Paper (at least 3 pieces per student) Commercially Published Thesaurus and Dictionary in Print Form Number 2 Pencils Reminder: Use only a number 2 pencil.

There are different kinds of prewriting. Choose a kind of prewriting that you know and like. Directions for First Draft: Use the best ideas from your prewriting to write your first draft. Since it is a draft, it is okay to cross out words and sentences and try different ways to get your ideas across. Use scratch paper for your first draft. Directions for Final Draft: Writers often make changes as they work. Before you begin your final draft, read the Checklist on page 4 again. Then make revisions and edits to your first draft according to the Checklist.
