Buddy feedback criteria

With a small group of students we had a really great discussion about what is important when giving feedback and why it is useful.

Student voice:
Why would we want to share our writing with a buddy?

* If I'm not sure about something I can go show an expert and get some help
* At the moment I only see my own writing - it would be good to read other peoples writing too. It might help to give me some more ideas
* I'll see things in my buddy's writing that might help me or make me look carefully at my own writing
* I could learn from my friends

Success criteria: (when sharing writing)

* Author reads their writing aloud
* Buddy gives one or two things that they like about the writing - Be specific
* Give 1 next step
* Ask them what they want to work on
