  2. Organization
     Requires that the structure of the piece be suited to its genre, topic, and purpose.
  3. Word Choice
     Requires the writer to make purposeful decisions when choosing words.
  1. Sentence Fluency
     Sentences flow naturally in the piece, with smooth rhythm and cadence.
  2. Voice
     Refers to the style of the writer. The piece should be enthusiastic with a personal touch while still fitting the purpose, audience, and genre.
  3. Conventions
     Involves grammar, spelling, and mechanics.
