No math information is used to solve the problem. No attempt or below grade level work shown. Strategy chosen and applied Used an appropriate strategy. Reasonable strategy selected and developed. Content knowledge is used correctly. Used an appropriate strategy. Reasonable strategy selected, moderately developed. Content knowledge used appropriately, with minor computation errors. Used an appropriate strategy. Reasonable strategy selected, minimally developed. Uses content knowledge with conceptual errors. There is an attempt to solve the problem. No strategy is applied that could lead to an answer. Uses no content knowledge. No attempt at using a strategy or below grade level work shown. Calculations performed Calculated the correct answer. Work shown is logical. Diagrams or labeled work support the strategy. Calculations are completely correct and answers properly labeled. Calculated a correct answer but was unable to explain the strategy. Work shown has gaps. Calculations are mostly correct, may contain minor errors. Work is partially shown. Major errors may be evident. Calculations contain major errors. Attempted to solve the problem. A limited amount of work shown. Calculations are completely incorrect leading to an incorrect answer. No attempt or below grade level work shown. Justification of strategy, conclusion and/or Justifies the strategy, conclusion, and/or answer to the problem. Justifies the strategy, conclusion, and/or answer, but leaves out Attempts to justify the strategy, conclusion, and/or answer, but the No justification for the strategy, conclusion, and/or answer.

answer details. justification is not relevant to the problem. shown. Explanation of strategy for solving the problem. Adequately explained the answer. Exemplary explanation. Detailed and clear, examples may have been provided. Adequately explained the strategy but did not calculate the correct answer. Explanation contained adequate details. Adequate clarity. Could not explain the strategy used. Explanations are somewhat clear. Lacks details. Attempted an explanation, but incorrect or unclear. No attempt or below grade level work shown. Communication Uses mathematical language, graphs, diagrams, and/or charts appropriately. Solution is presented in a clear and orderly manner so the reader can follow the flow of the solution and final answer. Uses mathematical language, graphs, diagrams, and/or charts appropriately, but may contain transcription or computation errors. Solution is presented in a manner so the scorer can follow most of the steps in the solution and final answer. Uses mathematical language, graphs, diagrams, and/or charts appropriately, but contains conceptual errors. Solution is presented in an unclear manner. Scorer has difficulty following the sequence of steps. Uses little or no mathematical language, graphs, diagrams, and/or charts but contains conceptual errors. Presents the problem in an unclear manner, steps are missing or out of sequence. Scorer cannot determine a sequence of steps. No attempt or below grade level work shown.
