	Great 0 pts	Good 0 pts	Fair 0 pts	Poor 0 pts
Key Concepts Present Seafloor Spreading Subduction Convergent Boundary Divergent Boundary Transform Boundary Mountain-building Mid-Ocean Ridge Convection Currents All Plates labeled (oceanic/continental) Lithosphere Asthenosphere	Great Plate Tectonics theory is clearly defined by the diagram and has all of the concepts required. (12 Points)	Good Plate Tectonics theory is clearly defined, but is missing one-two of the required concepts. (8 Points)	Fair Plate Tectonics theory is defined, but is missing three or more of the required concepts. (4 points)	Poor missing 0 points
Diagrams Diagrams model the theory of plate tectonics.	Great One diagram or many small diagrams are used to represent the plate tectonics theory. Diagrams are neat, thoughtful, and labeled. 10 Points	Good Diagrams are used to represent plate tectonics theory. Diagrams are neat, but are not labeled and a little unclear. 5 Points	Fair Diagrams are present, but are not labeled or not understandable due to disorder. 2 Points	Poor missing 0 points
Presentation The way the poster is put together. Neatness, order, and clarity.	Great The presentation of the information is pleasing to look at. Information is easy to read and understand. Pictures are neat and done with excellence. 5 Points	Good The presentation of the information lacks neatness and order. Information may be scattered or messy. 3 Points	Fair Little or no effort was put into the format of the information. Information is difficult to read and little pride was taken. 1 Point	Poor missing 0 points
