Explanation of the Equation
	Unsatisfactory 1 pts	Basic 2 pts	Proficient 3 pts
Mathematical Procedure - Step by step	Unsatisfactory Incorrect answer with a partially correct step. Incorrect answer because the work is incorrect from the 1st step. Only the answer is given without showing the steps followed. Student forgets one step during the procedure or is consistently not sure when and how it is applied.	Basic Correct procedure and answer finding the value of the variable.	Proficient Correct procedure and answer finding the value of the variable. Shows a well-sequenced procedure.
Mathematical Procedure - Oral Explanation	Unsatisfactory Has difficulty explaining the mathematical procedure to find the value of the variable.	Basic Describes mathematical procedures without difficulty. In case of a clarification of one of the steps the student responds correctly to the questions from the teacher.	Proficient Explains mathematical procedures without difficulty and provides full explanations for why mathematical procedures are correct without the need to respond to clarifications.
Mathematical Concepts	Unsatisfactory Displays errors in knowledge of mathematical concepts. Student didn't use some of the key words. Explains the procedures without sense.	Basic Use of clear mathematical concepts and key words. Uses at least more than 4 key words.	Proficient Fully and eloquently articulate mathematical concepts and key words. Develops connections among mathematical concepts.
Written Communication	Unsatisfactory Writing is illegible or not adequately used to record information.	Basic Writing is legible and grammatically correct. Some misspelling words but the explanation makes sense. Writing is well-organized.	Proficient Communicates clearly and effectively. Legible and grammatically correct.
