Design of Sculpture Sculpture is 3D and an original idea from the student - not copied from anywhere or another student.	5 3D sculpture, and completely original idea from the student - not copied from anywhere. Very innovative design created by the student, nothing common or generalized.	4 3D sculpture, and completely original idea from the student - not copied from anywhere. Some parts of the design are truly innovative and some may be common or generalized ideas.	3 3D sculpture, and fairly original idea from the student - not copied from anywhere. May be a common idea done by many other students.	2 3D, and/or idea from the student may have been copied from someone else - not very original.	1 Not a 3D sculpture, and/or idea was copied from someone else.	Score _______
Built with clay slabs and coils Sculpture is slab and coil built with proper techniques; slipping and scoring is evident; clay is no thicker than 1/2 an inch; seams blended	5 Proper building techniques and coils and slabs are very evident; clay is definitely no thicker than 1/2"; slipping and scoring were done to keep sculpture from falling apart; all seams are blended well	4 Proper building techniques coils and slabs throughout almost all of sculpture; clay appears to be no thicker than 1/2"; slipping and scoring done in almost all areas; almost all seams blended well	3 Proper techniques and coil or slabs in most areas; clay may be a little too thick in one area; slipping and scoring in most places; most seams blended well	2 Proper techniques and coil or slabs in some areas; clay is too thick in more than one area; slipping and scoring in some places; some seams blended well	1 Proper techniques and coil or slabs in few or no areas; clay is too thick in most places; slipping and scoring is not evident; seams are not blended	Score _____
Detail Features of the sculpture have been added on 3-dimensionally and/or carved, pressed, drawn into clay to show textures and details.	5 Tons of detail added to sculpture and almost all added 3-dimensionally with very little being carved, pressed or drawn. Very easy to identify what the sculpture is.	4 Lots of detail and most added 3-dimensionally with some carved, pressed or drawn. Easy to tell what the sculpture is.	3 Enough detail to help figure out what the sculpture is. Some details are 3D, some carved, pressed or drawn.	2 Details, but all or most are carved, pressed or drawn and not 3D. Hard to tell what sculpture is supposed to be.	1 Very few or no details at all almost impossible to tell what the sculpture is.	Score _____
Craftsmanship/Clean-Up Sculpture has any cracks, bumps, lumps and chunks smoothed out and student name is easily identified. Proper clean-up and storage of clay each day.	5 Sculpture has any cracks, bumps, lumps and chunks smoothed out perfectly and name is easily to read on sculpture. Proper clean-up and storage of clay each day. Student even volunteered with extra clean-up around the art room and made sure supplies were all stored neatly.	4 Sculpture has any cracks, bumps, lumps and chunks smoothed out very well and student name is easy to read. Proper clean-up and storage of clay each day. Student sometimes helped with extra clean-up around the room.	3 Sculpture has most cracks, bumps, lumps and chunks smoothed out and student name is easy to read. Proper clean-up and storage of clay each day.	2 Sculpture has some cracks, bumps, lumps and chunks smoothed out and student name is carved on clay. Proper clean-up and storage of clay was done some of the time.	1 Sculpture didn't get smoothed out and name is not carved on it. Student rarely did proper clean-up, messed around during clean-up, and/or refused to clean-up on time.	Score ______
Daily Working Habits Student worked each and every day from start to finish of the class period. Took care of their clay piece by wrapping their clay up to where it didn't get dry the next class meeting. Followed any advice teacher gave to help create piece fully.	5 Student worked each and every day from start to finish of the class period.

Took care of their clay piece wrapping their clay up to where it didn't get dry the next class meeting. Attempted to follow the advice given by teacher.	3 Student worked when convenient to them. Was reminded to work by the teacher a good bit in class. Did not wrap their clay fully therefore their piece was a bit dry and harder to work with when creating. Did not apply advice from teacher.	2 Student barely worked due to attendance so clay piece was not completed or created at all. Consistently reminded to work daily. Did not wrap clay up and let air dry before being fully finished with piece. Did not apply advice from teacher.	1 Student barely worked so clay piece was not completed or created at all.
