This download provides all the assessment tools you need to grade every activity outlined in the SAE for All Plan. Designed to save you countless hours of preparation, these rubrics clearly communicate expectations to students, align with AET documentation requirements, and cover all five Foundational SAE areas plus the Team-Based Challenge.
📦 What’s Included?
You will receive one comprehensive Excel file containing 9 individual rubrics (in .csv format for easy TPT upload and viewing), including:
- Traditional SAE Rubric (The Big Picture): A comprehensive 100-point rubric for assessing a student's full Immersion/Traditional SAE record book (for students who progress beyond Foundational SAE). It evaluates Record Keeping Accuracy, Job & Responsibilities, Skills Learned/Learning Objectives, Journaling Consistency, and Other documentation (e.g., Resume, financials).
- Foundational SAE Rubrics (Course-Specific): Seven 100-point rubrics, one for each course's Foundational SAE activities:
- Intro to Ag (Semester 1)
- Intro to Ag (Semester 2)
- Animal Science
- Plant Science
- Advanced Animal Science
- Horticulture
- Ag Business Management
- Basic Maintenance
- Core Components Assessed in all Foundational Rubrics (20 points per area):
- Career Exploration & Planning: (e.g., Ag Explorer Quiz, College/Career Fair Follow-up, Individual Ag Teacher Meeting)
- Employability Skills for College & Career Readiness: (e.g., Resume, Individualized Learning Plan/Competencies, Job Application)
- Personal Financial Management & Planning: (e.g., Monopoly Project, Personal Budget, College Financial Plan)
- Workplace Safety: (e.g., Safety Equipment Project, Shop Safety Test, Safety Lesson for Elementary Students)
- Agriculture Literacy: (e.g., Ag Discovery/Invention Project, Ag Policy Essay, Farm Bill Project)
- TEAM-BASED Challenge (Intro to Ag S2 only): Farm Forward Project Rubric is included within the S2 sheet.
🔗 How the Rubrics Relate to the "SAE for All Plan" Document
These rubrics are the direct assessment tools for the activities described in the original "TPT - SAE for All Plan" document.
- The Plan is the What and the How: The plan outlines what Foundational SAE activities students must complete in each agriculture course and provides the logistical instructions for students to log these activities in AET.
- The Rubrics are the Assessment: Each rubric corresponds to a set of activities in the plan, clearly defining the "20-15 point" (excellent) criteria for successful completion. For example, the Intro to Ag S1 Rubric assesses the Ag Explorer Quiz journal, the Individualized Learning Plan, the Monopoly project, and the Safety Equipment project—all of which are required activities in the Intro to Ag S1 section of the plan.
Use this bundle alongside the plan to create a seamlessly integrated and assessed Foundational SAE program in your classroom!
