Based off the rubric for MP #3, I would give these essays a letter grade of a B and an A. The first essay, “Activist Has shaped the world we live in,” was a good essay, but could have been better. The writer could have summarized a bit more about the British and colonists to make it not so carried away. The writer also had a few grammatical errors. However, she did include historical sources related directly the Boston Tea Party. Overall, the writer got the major point across and this is why I would simply give this paper a letter grade of a B. The second essay,“Activism should disappear,” offered a different argument. The introduction was very strong and went into detail about doing something good. The writer also explained in great detail about activists’ activities. Both essays introduced a problem to engage the reader. I would give this essay an A. However, they both had places to improve. They both similarly show how activists shape the world in which we live.
