Disagree -- emphasis on SHOULD; but if we used more rubrics, maybe we could move away from traditional assessment and towards performances

# data[].attributes.body
We think that it depends on what the rubric is used for. If it is for a common then it should be the same across the grade, but for other tasks we can differentiate to meet the students needs, ability level, or potential.

Depends on what you are using it for, the students, etc. It should not be overwhelming. May look different in different situations.
