Ah thank you! I've spent the last two days writing about emergent writing and revisiting the rubric. I used it with graduate students and it's being used in research at the moment as well.
Spent time getting annoyed again at a lot of the statements but the writing was cathartic :)

I was talking about the great work my colleagues in Norway did on the norm project. They collected samples of writing to see what children could do... then set standards www.hf.uio.no/iln/english/...
The NORM Corpus - Department of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies
The NORM Corpus consists of more than 5000 student essays collected in the research project Developing national standards for writing. A tool for teaching and learning (The NORM Project). The essays were written by pupils in school years 3, 4, 6 and 7 in comprehensive school. The corpus contains more than 1.1 million words.
