	Does not meet expectations 0 pts	Approaching expectations 1 pts	Minimally meets expectations 2 pts	Meets expectations 3 pts	Exceeds expectations 4 pts
Model: Circuit	Does not meet expectations Circuit not attempted.	Approaching expectations Circuit attempted with connection errors.	Minimally meets expectations Simple circuit constructed showing basics of circuit design.	Meets expectations Circuit shows a sound level of knowledge and design.	Exceeds expectations Circuit shows an exceptional level of knowledge and design.
Model: Arduino	Does not meet expectations Arduino not connected.	Approaching expectations Attempt made to connect Arduino to circuit with errors using Ground or Pins.	Minimally meets expectations Arduino connected with one error.	Meets expectations Arduino connected correctly to circuit.	Exceeds expectations Efficient connection of Arduino to circuit.
Code Basics	Does not meet expectations No code included.	Approaching expectations Elements of the code are correct. eg use of digitalWrite, or use of pinMode, switching lights on or off.	Minimally meets expectations Sections of code are correct for switching lights on or off.	Meets expectations Code switches lights on and off.	Exceeds expectations Code meets requirements and uses more complex elements, like variables or loops.
Coding a Pattern	Does not meet expectations No attempt made.	Approaching expectations Student attempted to create a pattern of lights using code.	Minimally meets expectations Code demonstrates a pattern of lights with minor errors.	Meets expectations Code works and shows a simple pattern of lights.	Exceeds expectations Code works and shows a more complex pattern of lights.
