In addition to a wealth of new prompts, we have made significant improvements to the Narrative genre. Based on teacher feedback, we've optimized the rubric, scoring, and comments to provide more actionable feedback to students. For supports on incorporating new prompts into your curriculum, view the Scope and Sequence document, which details "essential questions" associated with each prompt and related concepts.
For more curricular supports, view our exemplars, sample essays that can help teachers gain further insight into how Revision Assistant is assessing student work. Need some inspiration? Here are 25 Ways to Use Exemplar Essays to help with all that back-to-school planning. Recently added exemplars include:
