Assessment Commentary:

AF1: 

Ideas & Voice

 – Write imaginative, interesting, and thoughtful texts

• 

The author includes three points that are starting to move beyond personal reasons. All ideas are relevant 

and linked to the author’s attempt to persuade the principal for more P.E. time (e.g., more exercise, get skills, 

become a pro). The author also elaborates on each reason with some detail.  

• 

The author’s individuality and unique voice are evident in several sections throughout the text. Including short  

sentences for effect, strong adjectives, and rhetorical questions will help the author exhibit his/her  

individuality. The overall tone shows that the author cares about the topic and outcome. There is a sense of  

enthusiasm throughout the piece.
