Score The student will: 3.0 contrast the function of a whole object, plant, or animal with the function of one of its parts (e.g., an airplane can fly, but wings and propeller alone cannot; plants can grow, but stems and flowers alone cannot) The student exhibits no major errors or omissions. 2.5 No major errors or omissions regarding 2.0 content and partial knowledge of the 3.0 content Score There are no major errors or omissions regarding the simpler details and Given an example of a function (ex: flying) identify if 2.0 processes as the student: it is a function that can be carried out by a part of a recognizes or recalls if a function is that of a whole object, plant, or animal or system (the propeller) or by the whole (the plane). the function of one of its parts recognizes or recalls basic terminology such as: function However, the student exhibits major errors or omissions regarding the more complex ideas and processes. 1.5 Partial knowledge of the 2.0 content but major errors or omissions regarding the 3.0 content Score With help, a partial understanding of some of the simpler details and processes and some of the more complex ideas and processes. 1.0 0.5 With help, a partial understanding of the 2.0 content but not the 3.0 content Score Even with help, no understanding or skill demonstrated. 0.0
