The response is clearly communicated and shows a complete and accurate solution process. • All of the steps are clearly shown and/or communicated. The process is clearly focused. • Knowledge of the mathematics skills needed to solve the problem are clearly demonstrated, leading to an accurate solution. • The response is significantly communicated and shows a substantial part of a valid solution process. • Most of the steps are shown and/or communicated. Minor errors may exist but do not affect the reasonableness of the solution. The process for the most part is focused. It may lack focus at one or two points but still has a basic sense of direction. • Sufficient knowledge of the mathematics skills needed to solve the problem are demonstrated, leading to a reasonable solution based on the process. • The response is partially communicated and shows only part of a valid solution process. • Some of the steps are shown and/or communicated. Many minor or a few major errors effect the reasonableness of the solution. • The process lacks focus. Some (partial) knowledge of the mathematics skills needed to solve the problem are demonstrated, which may or may not lead to a reasonable solution. • The response is insufficiently shown or communicated. The process seems confused and lacks focus. • Many significant errors effect the process and reasonableness of the solution. • There is overwhelming evidence that there is a lack of knowledge of the mathematics skills needed to solve the problem, which leads to no solution or an unreasonable solution. Off Task or NO Attempt •
