Assessment Commentary:

AF1: 

Ideas & Voice

 – Write imaginative, interesting, and thoughtful texts

• 

The author provides and elaborates upon at least three ideas that are all related to the topic. The opening and 

details of the text answer the “who,” “where,” “what,” “when,” “how,” and “why” questions. 

• 

Interesting word choices and phrases (e.g., “toasty” and “Yum, Yum!”) and conventions (e.g., dialogue) allow 

the author’s unique voice and individuality to start coming through the text.
