I created this rubric to help students with writing in science class.  Using the 6+1 traits terminology and including science vocabulary, students are guided through paragraph writing in the work space provided.  You can find the rubric on the Teachers pay Teachers website.  It is free.



Science Vocabulary Paragraph Rubric (TpT)

Some of my lessons are included in Differentiation That Really Works in Science [Paperback]


Cheryll Adams Ph.D. (Author), Rebecca Pierce Ph.D. (Author)

Differentiation That Really Works: Science provides time-saving tips and strategies from real teachers who teach science in grades 6–12. These teachers not only developed the materials and used them in their own classes, but they also provide useful feedback and comments about the activities. The strategies included in the book are tiered lessons, cubing, graphic organizers, exit cards, learning contracts, and choice boards. Every strategy includes directions and offers opportunities for differentiation.
