Planning
Poor
Little or no evidence was planned out. They did not plan what they were going to build nor plan on what materials to use in the building.
Fair
Some evidence of a plan. There was some thought to materials/building, but not really thought out.
Good
Good evidence of planning done. Materials were listed and thought out, but the plan wasn't quite complete.
Excellent
I can really see what you are going to be building. All materials were listed and well thought out. I can't wait to see how you build your catapult.
Design
Poor
Your design lacked materials that were needed. It was really hard for me to tell what you built or were building.
Fair
Some materials were used correctly.
Good
Good use of the materials and plan. The catapult was nice and well put together, but there were parts that weren't well made.
Excellent
Great use of materials! You maximized your use of materials and created a great working catapult.
