	Does not meet expectations 1 pts	Needs Improvement 2 pts	Developing 3 pts	Accelerated 4 pts	Advanced 5 pts
Appearance and Visual appeal Graph is constructed neatly, points are evident and neatly plotted, and the lines are joined neatly.	1 Criteria is not met in all three components, but a recognizable picture is produced.	2 All criteria are not done neatly and this distracts from the overall appearance of the picture.	3 Two components of the criteria could have been done more neatly.	4 One component of the criteria could have been done more neatly.	5 All criteria are done neatly, creating a smooth and very recognizable picture.
Graph and Plotted Points The graph is constructed according to instructions, points are evident and correctly plotted. The lines connect points in the sequence listed.	1 There were 15+ errors in the graph layout, plotting of points and connection of the points.	2 There were 10 - 15 errors in the graph, plotting and/or connection of the points.	3 There were 5 - 10 errors in the graph, plotting and/or connection of the points.	4 There were a couple of small errors in the graph, plotting and/or connection of the points.	5 There were no graph, plotting or connection errors evident.
