The rubric I will use to judge my literacy autobiography comes partially from ch. 9 of the Lindemann book. If my autobio were to earn full marks it should have these traits:
1. The first paragraph is a promise to the reader that a somewhat interesting topic will be illuminated in the next few pages.
2. The paper is focused mostly on one topic.
3. The paper has sensory details that allow the reader to make mind pictures while reading the text.
4. There is evidence for the assertions made in the paper.
5. Each paragraph starts with a promise or topic sentence that introduces the paragraph.
6. The sentences within the paragraph relate closely to each other by being either coordinated or subordinated to the previous sentence.
7. Linking words are used correctly to show what type of relationship a subsequent sentence has with the previous one.
8. All paragraphs transition appropriately from one to the next.
9. All paragraphs contribute to the whole narrative.
