Spacecraft/Satellite
	Outstanding 4 pts	Good 3 pts	Fair 2 pts	Unsatisfactory 1 pts
Spacecraft/satellite build	Outstanding Student built a strong example of a spacecraft/satellite. Great effort and ability. Student demonstrated at an advanced level. Variety of materials that reflect shapes and designs of real spacecraft/satellite.	Good Student completed the task and met expectation. Good effort and spacecraft/satellite was built to satisfactory level. Student demonstrated a proficient level.	Fair Student completed some parts of the task and was below expectation. Tool was half way built and student represented poor effort. Student's actual result are at a basic level.	Unsatisfactory Student did not complete tasks or minimally and turned in late. Machine was not built at all. No effort was involved and student demonstrated understanding at a limited level.
Drawing in Tinkercad	Outstanding Student created a neat and well planned drawing of their spacecraft/satellite The drawing shows exceptional use of workspace.	Good Student created a useful drawing that could be printed and showed understanding of the work space with a few simple errors on the workplane.	Fair Student created a drawing with several errors that could be fixed before printing.	Unsatisfactory Student was not able to create a useful drawing. Practice in using a 3-D workplane is needed.
Explanation of Student Work	Outstanding Student clearly explained in detail, how their spacecraft/satellite work and their use in their space research. Student did not use any other person's work as included in their project.	Good Student did a complete job of explaining their spacecraft/satellite but could have added some detail. Student did not use other's work included in their project.	Fair Student gave an explanation but made a few mistakes in how things work. Student may have used a copy of another's work in their project but clearly made it their own.	Unsatisfactory Student did not give a written explanation or did not clearly explain the method used to build the machine. No explanation of how the machine works. Student simply made a copy of another person's work for printing.
