Essay Re-submission Contract & Expectations

A one-page resubmission system that holds students accountable for making real revisions, not just fixing typos. Students color-code every change they made before resubmitting using a built-in highlighting guide: yellow for the thesis, green for evidence, and pink for commentary. No highlighting means no acceptance.

Includes a clear eligibility checklist so students self-screen before they even come to you, a color-coded revision guide with self-check questions for each category, and a three-question reflection prompt so students actually think about their growth.

Works with any essay assignment. No grading system changes needed.

What's included: 1-page PDF (8.5 x 11, print ready)

Covers: thesis revision, evidence integration, commentary/analysis, student reflection, revision accountability

No prep needed. Just attach it to any returned essay.
