Science Model
	Below Expectation 5 pts	Approaching Expectation 6 pts	Meets Expectation 7 pts	Exceeds Expectation 10 pts
model 10 pts	Below Expectation Model shows no research in planning and is not finished	Approaching Expectation Model shows evidence of research in planning but is not finished	Meets Expectation Model is finished but may be inaccurate or messy	Exceeds Expectation Model is completely finished, well though out and is easily understood
Construction/3D component 10 pts	Below Expectation The model is poorly constructed	Approaching Expectation The model is constructed but uses materials that are not well chosen. May not have a 3D component, may be be too simple	Meets Expectation The model is carefully constructed with all components but does not showcase student's creativity (it is too simple)	Exceeds Expectation The model is carefully constructed with materials that showcase student's creativity and are appropriate.
Organization and mechanics 10 pts	Below Expectation Model does not clearly demonstrated the assigned geological processes and there is a problem with the movable parts	Approaching Expectation Model moves but is not thoughtfully engineered. Does not represent high school level ingenuity and creativity	Meets Expectation Model moves, shows high school level ingenuity and creativity, but has a slight glitch	Exceeds Expectation Model moves easily, shows high school level ingenuity and creativity
Labels 10 pts	Below Expectation No features are labeled, or all are labeled incorrectly	Approaching Expectation Some feature labels are present. Some labels are inaccurate	Meets Expectation All feature labels are present with 1-2 mistakes	Exceeds Expectation All features are labeled accurately
Overal Impression 1 pts	Below Expectation Model is very messy. Poorly constructed	Approaching Expectation Model is somewhat messy. Not all construction is solid	Meets Expectation Model is neat and average attention was given to its appearance. It is well constructed	Exceeds Expectation Model is very neat and above average attention was given to detail and appearance. It is very well constructed
