The correct answer is C. Read the criteria

Step-by-step explanation:

A rubric is a tool used to evaluate someone else presentation, text, answer or work which are widely used in educational contexts. Rubrics are usually charts that serve as a guide for evaluation by providing the criteria or aspects that need to be evaluated, the definition of each aspect and scoring guides. This means by using a rubric you can evaluate someone else performance in a more objective and detailed way. For using a rubric to evaluate any work including writing samples, besides designing or getting a detailed rubric that allows you to evaluate specifically the writing sample and reading the writing sample or material to be evaluated, you will need to read the rubric carefully and really understand each of the criteria and how the rubric works, in this way you can start comparing the sample with the criteria established on the rubric. Thus, one of the first steps when using a rubric is to read the criteria of it.
