Work meets standard of excellence

Work meets standard of proficiency

Work meets acceptable standard

Work does not yet meet acceptable standard

Connections

• demonstrates a sophisticated ability to transfer knowledge and skills to new contexts

• demonstrates a consistent ability to transfer knowledge and skills to new contexts

• demonstrates some ability to transfer knowledge and skills to new contexts

• demonstrates a limited ability to transfer knowledge and skills to new contexts

Visualization

• uses visual representations insightfully to foster/demonstrate a thorough understanding

• uses visual representations meaningfully to foster/demonstrate a reasonable understanding

• uses visual representations simply to foster/demonstrate a

basic understanding

• uses visual representations poorly to foster/demonstrate an incomplete understanding

Communication

• uses effective and specific mathematical language, symbols, and conventions to enhance communication

• provides a precise and insightful explanation of

mathematical concepts

and/or procedures

• uses appropriate and correct mathematical language, symbols, and conventions to support communication

• provides a clear and logical explanation of mathematical concepts and/or procedures

• uses mathematical language, symbols, and conventions to partially support communication

• provides a partially clear explanation of mathematical concepts and/or procedures

• uses mathematical and nonmathematical language and conventions incorrectly and/or inconsistently that interfere with communication

• provides a vague and/or inaccurate explanation of mathematical concepts and/or procedures
