Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about the Rubric Library.

It holds ready-made rubrics for 19 assignment types, from creative writing and analytical essays to lab reports, debates, and video projects, each organized by topic and grade level.

Every assignment type comes in four grade bands: Grades 1 to 3, 4 to 5, 6 to 8, and 9 to 12, so you can grab the version that fits your students.

Each rubric comes both ways. The analytic version scores each category separately in a grid, and the holistic version gives one overall score. Pick whichever matches how you grade.

Yes to both. The library is free with a free account, and every rubric is built to print cleanly so you can hand it out right away.

Yes. Use any rubric as-is, or adjust the wording and expectations for your own class. Share it with other teachers too. Just please do not sell it.
