Enter rubric title Enter rubric description
	Outstanding 20 pts	Good 15 pts	Satisfactory 10 pts	Poor 5 pts
Drawing Drawing/model is accurate showing all essential components	Outstanding All components are labeled properly and show an extra effort for clarity and detail	Good All components are labeled properly	Satisfactory One or two components involved in protein synthesis are missing or mislabeled	Poor Many components involved in protein synthesis are missing or mislabeled
Genetic Code At least two DNA triplet codes are properly transcribed into 2 mRNA codons	Outstanding Two or more codes are transcribed and labeled correctly and with extra effort for clarity and detail	Good Two or more codes are transcribed and labeled correctly	Satisfactory Only one code is transcribed correctly	Poor Codes are incorrectly transcribed or not shown
Connections (one) At least two codon-anticodon combinations are properly labeled	Outstanding Two or more codon-anticodon combinations are shown correctly with an extra effort for clarity and detail	Good Two or more codon-anticodon combinations are shown correctly	Satisfactory Only one codon-anticodon combination is shown correctly	Poor Codon-anticodon combinations are not understood or missing
Connections (two) At least two amino acids are linked by peptide bonds showing the beginnings of a peptide chain (translation)	Outstanding Two or more amino acids are shown with one or more peptide bonds clearly labeled between amino acids. A peptide chain is clearly represented.	Good Two or more amino acids are shown with one or more peptide bonds labeled between the amino acids	Satisfactory Only one amino acid is shown without any reference to peptide bonds	Poor Connections between DNA or mRNA code and amino acids is not represented clearly or accurately
Correct Coding	Outstanding All codes are accurate and drawing/model represented with extra clarity and detail	Good All codes are accurate	Satisfactory One of the codes shown is incorrect	Poor Two or more of the codes shown (DNA-mRNA), (mRNA-tRNA), (mRNA translated to amino acid sequence) are incorrect
