DNA Paper Model Worth 30 Pts.
	Advanced 10 pts	Proficient 8 pts	Basic 6 pts	Below Basic 4 pts	Far Below Basic 2 pts
Quality of Work	Advanced Great care taken in construction process so that the structure is neat, attractive and follows plans accurately.	Proficient Construction was careful and accurate for the most part, but 1-2 details could have been refined for a more attractive product.	Basic Construction accurately followed the plans, but 3-4 details could have been refined for a more attractive product.	Below Basic Construction appears careless or haphazard. Many details need refinement for a strong or attractive product	Far Below Basic Construction appears almost non-existent. Student supplied some material that has no organization or evidence of product.
DNA Criteria	Advanced Included all required aspects of DNA model.	Proficient Included most required aspects of DNA model (1 criteria left out). Double-helix structure and complimentary base pairings are accurate.	Basic Included some of the required aspects of DNA model (2-3 criteria left out). Double-helix structure can be seen but complimentary base pairings are inaccurate.	Below Basic Included very few required aspects of DNA model (4-5 criteria left out). DNA model incomplete with little recognized structures.	Far Below Basic Included almost no required aspects of DNA model (more than 5 criteria left out). Materials used make it hard to recognize model as DNA.
Collaboration/Time Management	Advanced Students used time very wisely when working together as a group. Group stayed on task and worked great as a team without any prompting from teacher.	Proficient Students used time fairly wisely when working together as a group. Group stayed fairly on task and worked on project with minor prompting from teacher.	Basic Did not use time as wisely when working together as a group. Group did not stay on task and needed regular prompting from teacher to stay focused.	Below Basic Did not use time very wisely when working together as a group. Group did not stay on task and did not work on project without constant prompting from teacher.	Far Below Basic Did not use time wisely at all when working together as a group. Group did not stay on task and did not work on project without constant prompting from teacher and required extra time.
