Thinking

uses critical/creative
processes to discover and show various patterns within Pascal's Triangle, using
appropriate
patterning strategies
Level One

uses critical/creative
processes resulting in
an incomplete or
seriously flawed
solution, using a
limited range of 
appropriate patterning and numeracy
strategies 
Level Two

uses critical/creative
processes with partial 
success, using some
appropriate patterning
and numeracy strategies 
Level 3

uses critical/creative
processes resulting in
a successful solution,  using appropriate and
effective patterning
and numeracy strategies 
Level 4

uses critical/creative
processes resulting in
a successful solution,  using innovative,  appropriate, and
effective patterning
and numeracy strategies
Knowledge & Understanding

shows understanding
of patterning concepts by
explaining patterns within Pascal's Triangle.
Level One

Very few patterns or number discoveries are found. Patterns and number discoveries are very basic and are not clearly explained.
Level Two

Four patterns or number discoveries are found. Patterns or number discoveries of low complexity are described and explained.
Level 3

Four patterns or number discoveries are found, coloured and explained with detail.
Level 4

Four or more complex patterns or number discoveries are made, coloured and explained with great detail.
Application

with accuracy: uses previous numbers in the triangle to complete the blanks and continue the triangle to the 12th row.
Level One

Unable to complete the triangle up to row 12.
Level Two

Triangle is complete to the 12th row, but with several errors occurring in the rows.
Level 3

Triangle is complete with very few errors.
Level 4

Triangle is completed with perfect accuracy.
Communication

*expresses mathematical 
thinking (e.g., explanations, descriptions)

*clearly and precisely presents work clearly, including colours and labels
Level One

Patterns and number discoveries are not clearly communicated.

Work is messy and difficult to follow.

Colours are not used to communicate the findings clearly.
Level Two

Patterns and number discoveries are somewhat clearly communicated.

Work is messy, but can be followed.

Colours are used to communicate the findings.
Level 3

Patterns are clearly communicated.

Work is clear and can be followed.

Colours are effectively used to communicate the findings.
Level 4

Patterns and number discoveries are outstandingly communicated.

Work is very clear and easy to follow.

Colours are effectively used to communicate the findings.
