The student needed extra support to fully understand the functions of the brain.	Level 3 The student INDEPENDENTLY and CONSISTENTLY shows knowledge of understanding the functions of the brain.
Creativity/Presentation Students are expected to select a medium that demonstrates the anatomy and function of the brain. Students are expected to pay attention to detail, color, labels, and clear communication to make their model easy to study	Level 1 The student is BEGINNING to communicate effectively their understanding of the brain through a model. The student could not independently label or present their model on the brain.	Level 2 The student is DEVELOPING in communicating their understanding of the brain through a model. The student needed extra support to fully label and clearly communicate their model on the brain.
