Greek Coil Vessels
	Novice 1 pts	Partially Proficient 2 pts	Proficient 3 pts	Advanced 4 pts
Overall Appearance	Novice Piece doesn't resemble a Greek Amphora at all. It is messy and not visually appealing, it is uneven or looks disproportional. Piece had to be mended. Explain WHY?	Partially Proficient Piece could have been presented better, it has some elements missing or looks rushed. It doesn't have a symmetrical appearance, The foot ring and the body are disproportional and handles could be missing.	Proficient Greek vessel is pleasing to view but could be refined, either in design, surface decoration, craftsmanship or in other ways. I could have done a better job. Not my best work.	Advanced I used all of my time to make sure this piece is as aesthetically pleasing as possible, while being functional. It is proportional and nothing had to be added. It looks complete in every way, including glazes.
Size and Criteria	Novice Vessel is not uniform as a set. The pieces are of different sizes and forms. Vessel doesn't have a foot or handles. It is not 5" tall It is not 4"wide. It does not have any surface design or very little.	Partially Proficient Vessel are somewhat the size as listed in the criteria . I could have added many more features. It is somewhat meeting criteria, but is still to large or small. No red or black slip is used.	Proficient Greek vessel is mostly complete and has both black and red slip with multiple designs that resemble the Greek design. It is a bit taller or a bit smaller, but mostly looks complete.	Advanced This vessel could pass for an authentic Greek Amphora ! It has red and black slip with designs added appropriately. It is has the correct sizes, (5" x4")proportions, excellent handles and a multi layered footring with excellent details.
Design/creativity	Novice Minimal use of design is used. It looks incomplete. There is not enough surface decoration. I didn't use my design at all.	Partially Proficient Pieces incorporate some use of design. I could have added more and it lacks creativity. I stayed consistent with my sketch.	Proficient Pieces incorporate understanding of the elements of art and principles of design, I stayed true to my sketch and added creative surface design and handles that work well. I could have added more.	Advanced Pieces incorporate thorough knowledge of the elements of art and principles of design to make the Greek vessel authentic and visually interesting. The piece hold the viewer's eye. It is symmetrical.
Carftsmanship	Novice Glazing is unfinished.	Partially Proficient Glazing is applied unevenly. Color application/choice is not necessarily complementary to the form.	Proficient Glazing is evenly applied. Color choice/application is fits the form.	Advanced Glazing/underglazing and details/ line is thoroughly done Technique is outstanding.Slip and underglaze and handles complements the form.
Use of time	Novice I was often off task. I didn't clean up well 1 or more days. I could have done much better on this project, I rushed, it was not my best work.	Partially Proficient I was sometimes off task. I could have cleaned up better. I could have added more details.	Proficient I mostly worked hard on this project. I cleaned up well. I could have added more design if I had another day. I stayed on task MOST all of the time. I didn't leave anything messy.	Advanced I worked very hard on this project and did my best. I cleaned up after myself every day. I didn't get on my phone or was off task at all. This is an exquisite work of art!
