I have a history of having kiddos just want to rush through their work. They don't take pride in it because they just want to 'win' and be the first one finished. This rubric gives them something to strive for. No longer is it important to be done first, it is important to do your personal best and take pride in producing quality work. Yeah, I know it's just coloring... but it's a start!
I got the idea from this website. Now, me... being the picky person I am, decided to type it up. After all, if I'm going to make it, I'm going to make it nice looking, I'm going to laminate it, and I'm going to make it ONCE and ONCE ONLY. Might as well make it how you want it so you never have to do it again.

5. Use black marker to draw sad faces, okay faces, and happy faces.
