 * === Understanding the Difference Between Column 3 and Column 4 ===
 * Column 3 indicates when the student has met the standard
 * Column 4 indicates the student can do more than the basics that the standard requires
 * You don't need a column 4 for every category
 * Use these two documents to help develop your column 4 descriptor

 * ** Using a weighted 1, 2, 3, 4 model **
 * Start with 1 so all students can see that they are capable of meeting some requirements
 * Use an even number of columns so you are less inclined to select the middle column
 * **All rubrics should be weighted**; there are things that aren't SOL driven that should not count as much as the required SOL skills
 * ** Review your Rubric Using a "Rubric for Your Rubric" **
 * This is how your Rubric will be evaluated for your DGP
 * Use this document to review your rubric before you submit it
