Planning 5 pts Student should be unable to write up a plan of what they require and method	Unsatisfactory No attempt of plan or method	Poor Plan and method was half completed or late	Good Has completed and shows a clear understanding of their plan of what materials are required and a clear method for completion of experiment	Outstanding Has completed and shows an oustanding understanding of experimental procedure and materials required
Experimental preparation 5 pts Students should have completed their aim, hypothesis and method before starting experiment.	Unsatisfactory No attempt at completing their aim hypothesis or method.	Poor Aim, hypothesis and method was half completed or late	Good Has completed and shows a clear understanding of their aim, hypothesis and method	Outstanding Has completed and shows an outstanding understanding of their aim, hypothesis and method
Experimental procedure 5 pts Students should show a safe and correct procedure with the laboratory. (wearing lab coat and safety glasses)	Unsatisfactory Shows a very poor technique, does not wear any safety equipment.	Poor Shows poor techinque and ocassionally wears safety equipment.	Good Shows a good techinque and wears safety equipment correctly.	Outstanding Shows an oustanding techinque and understanding towards safety. Also wears equipment correctly.
Full report write-up 5 pts A student should understand be able to write a full report containing a title of experiment, aim for the experiment, a hypothesis of the outcomes (prediction), list all materials used and wrtie down all steps completed with experimental changes, show all results in a clear and precise manner, discuss all results and errors and conclude results referring back to their aim and hypothesis	Unsatisfactory No attempt at report	Poor Report was late or half completed or show more than two of the following mistakes: 1. Missing title or, aim or, hypothesis or, materials or, some method or, experimental changes or, not all results are listed, 2. Hypothesis is not a prediction 3.Results are not discussed clearly. 4. Conclusion does not address the hypothesis and/or the aim.	Good Report is completed and shows a clear understanding for report writing. Although report is completed it does show one or two of the following mistakes: 1. Missing materials or, some method or, experimental changes or, not all results are listed, 2. Results are not discussed clearly. 3. Conclusion does not address the hypothesis and/or the aim.	Outstanding Report is completed and shows an oustanding understanding for report writing. Report contains the following: 1. Clear title, aim, hypothesis that is a prediction 2. Lists all materials, method, experimental changes and results. 3. Results are discussed clearly. 4. Conclusion addresses the hypothesis and the aim.
