Guidelines for marking

The following guidelines for marking show one approach to assigning a value to a student’s work. Other approaches may be used that better suit the reporting process of the school. Categories, marks, grades, visual representations or individual comments/notations may all be useful.

Range	Students in this range:
High	draw appropriate graphs for each given story, with appropriate labelling of axes create different types of stories and matching graphs clearly explain results
Satisfactory	draw an appropriate graph for at least one of the given stories, with appropriate labelling of axes create at least one story and matching graph
Progressing	draw an appropriate graph for at least one of the given stories, with appropriate labelling of axes.

Feedback

Students will receive:

• possible prompt questions related to the assessment Activity to assist their engagement
• written feedback on individual responses in relation to drawing appropriate graphs of physical phenomena
• specific advice about strategies to further consolidate knowledge, skills and understanding, and suggestions for completing related additional tasks
• oral feedback (to the class and individuals) related to the overall understanding of the concepts and misconceptions about the mathematical ideas.
