Digestive System
	Excellent 5 pts	Good 4 pts	Fair 3 pts	Poor 2 pts
Info graphic Style	Excellent Model is very durable and will last for an extended time.	Good Model is durable, but will fall apart or break if mishandled at all.	Fair Model has loose parts that will easily fall off.	Poor Model is broken, or falls apart when touched.
Materials	Excellent All materials used resemble the organ or system. Variety of materials used. Even without labels they are obvious what parts they represent.	Good Materials resemble organ or system, but not obvious without labels.	Fair Do not clearly resemble organ or system - labels needed. Similar materials and colors used for some parts making it hard to distinguish parts.	Poor Do not resemble parts of the organ/ system at all. Similar materials and colors used for all parts.
Components all organs and structur	Excellent All major parts present. cessary. Mouth - (amylase) Esophagus (epiglottis) Stomach ( sphincters, Rugae, gastric juices) Small intestine (digestive juices) Large intestine Rectum Anus Liver Pancreas -( pancreatic juices) gallbladder	Good Most major parts present. Missing 1.	Fair Some major parts present. Missing 2.	Poor Missing 3 or more major parts.
Labels	Excellent All components are neatly labeled or represented on a key. Labels are neat and do not make model appear cluttered.	Good All components are labeled or represented on a key.	Fair Some components are not labeled or are labeled incorrectly. Labels are messy/illegible.	Poor Components are not labeled or are labeled wrong.
Physiology	Excellent Model clearly shows how both chemical and mechanical digestion happen in each part of the digestive system Chemical breakdown Mechanical breakdown Chyme Peristalsis Bolus Feces The 4 enzymes - Amylase, Pepsin, Trypsin, Lipase (juices) Bile Stomach Acid Villi Sphincters	Good Model shows how both chemical and mechanical digestion happen in each part of the digestive system one or two missing components	Fair Model somewhat shows how both chemical and mechanical digestion happen in each part of the digestive system 3-4 missing components	Poor Model does NOT shows how both chemical and mechanical digestion happen in each part of the digestive system many missing components
Originality	Excellent Model is original and unique. It illustrates the system and also the student's creativity.	Good Model is fairly original and represents the system accurately, but does not set itself apart from others.	Fair Model is nice, but lacking serious effort in terms of originality and an unique look at a system.	Poor Just another model.
Disorder	Excellent Group clearly describes their disorder ( symptoms and physiology) and how it changes the function of the digestive tract.	Good Group describes their disorder ( symptoms and physiology) and how it changes the function of the digestive tract.	Fair Group somewhat describes their disorder ( symptoms and physiology) and how it changes the function of the digestive tract.	Poor missing
