Vignette Rubric

This document provides a rubric for evaluating vignette writing. It assesses vignettes based on four criteria: word choice, use of similes/metaphors/personification, imagery, and conventions/grammar. For each criterion, it describes the skills and techniques expected at different proficiency levels from 4 (highest) to 1 (lowest). The rubric can be used to provide students with clear guidelines on writing vivid and descriptive vignettes that effectively employ imagery, figurative language, sensory details and proper grammar.
