TECH TIP: Quick Rubric
So the name kind of says it all here, Quick Rubric is a site that allows you to make quick and easy rubrics. It has an easy interface in which you fill in criteria for the rubric, and then the descriptors based upon the levels you set (Proficient, Emerging, Beginning, etc.). You set the total score and it will calculate how many points per section. It then will download it into a clean, modern look.
You can create an account to save all your rubrics. They also offer some good tips on writing a strong rubric: https://www.quickrubric.com/about/tips-to-writing-a-strong-rubric
BOOK TIP: Books on Mars
With the discovery of water on Mars and the release of the film The Martian (which I've reviewed here before, but HIGHLY recommend it!), a few other books about Mars exploration.
Curiosity's Mission on Mars: Exploring the Red Planet by Ron Miller
This book examines some of what Curiosity, also known as the Mars Rover, has sent back, including pictures.
Black Hole Sun by David Macinnis Gill
This is book one in a science fiction series about a group of mercenaries sent to protect a mining colony on Mars from an evil band of marauders. Fast paced and action filled!
