Skill with media-craftsmanship
pts

Students skill level using x-acto knifes, scissors, drawing and gluing pieces.
Failed

Student only cut one shape per side. Cuts from x-acto knife and scissors are of poor quality. Did not glue any pieces onto white paper.
Needs Improvement

Student only cut a few shapes per side. Limited knowledge on how to use an x-acto knife. Some pieces are missing. Needed help using a ruler and centering a square on a piece of paper.
Average

Student did not follow through with approved thumbnail design. Left the final project simple instead. Craftsmanship and skill need improvement. Jagged edges and tears from x-acto knife. Square is inaccurately centered on paper.
Good

Craftsmanship is good. Placement of shapes versus space is successful. Only small amounts of glue can be seen.
Excellent

Craftsmanship is excellent, no unwanted glue, cuts from x-acto are crisp and clear, no tears in paper. Stellar craftsmanship. Self motivated.
