Class chart for peer assessment
Peer assessment is talking, questioning and thinking critically about the writing produced by someone else—a friend, a partner, a group member, another writer.
When we peer assess, we:
1. Read the lear ning goal and success criteria.
2. Check that we both understand what these mean, and what is required of us in our writing.
3. Take turns to read our writing out loud to each other.
4. Read each other’s writing again to ourselves.
5. Ask each other questions about our writing.
• Why did you…?
• Tell me more about …
• Have you thought about …?
6. Re-visit the success criteria to:
• agree what has been achieved
• identify what needs to be done next.
7. Revise our work in response to peer assessment.
