Lesson 3 Student sample essay critique

Objective Students will be able to assess the application of cause and effect analysis principles
in sample student essays
In this lesson, students will have read three cause and effect analysis essays written by
students. These essays are written about different readings than the ones currently assigned to
students. In small groups, students will use the cause and effect analysis rubric to grade each
sample cause and effect analysis essay. Scores for each essay will be put on the board. Groups
will justify their grades. Then the instructor will give the grades that sample cause and effect
analysis essay received and explain the grade.
