Mathematical Knowledge
Mathematical Strategies
Mathematical Communication
- Ability to use conceptual and
procedural knowledge which results in a correct solution
to a problem
- Ability to interpret a problem,
identify relevant information, and select a solution
strategy
- Ability to use mathematical
language and representations to explain the solution
process
Distinguished ..... 4
- shows complete understanding of a
problem's mathematical concepts and
procedures
- performs algorithms completely and
correctly
- always uses appropriate
mathematical notation (i.e., labels answers)
- identifies all relevant
information and shows complete understanding
- selects a creative and efficient
strategy for solving the problem
- shows clear evidence of a complete
and systematic solution process
- gives an elaborate and effective
explanation of the solution process
- succinctly explains "solution" to
others
- uses precise mathematical
language
Proficient ..... 3
- shows nearly complete
understanding of a problem's mathematical concepts and
procedures
- performs algorithms completely;
computations may contain minor errors
- often uses appropriate
mathematical notation
- identifies most relevant
information and shows a general understanding
- selects an appropriate strategy
for solving the problem
- shows some evidence of a
systematic solution process
- gives an effective explanation of
the solution process
- uses appropriate mathematical
language
Apprentice ..... 2
- shows some understanding of a
problem's mathematical concepts and
procedures
- performs algorithms that may
contain major computational errors
- seldom uses appropriate
mathematical notation
- identifies some relevant
information and shows limited understanding
- selects a strategy but unable to
effectively arrive at a solution
- shows little evidence of a
systematic solution process
- gives some explanation of the
solution process but may be vague or difficult to
interpret
- uses some mathematical language
appropriately
Novice ..... 1
- shows limited or no understanding
of a problem's mathematical concepts and
procedures
- performs algorithms that may
contain major computational errors
- misuses or omits appropriate
mathematical notation
- identifies little or no relevant
information
- selects an inappropriate strategy
for solving the problem
- shows no evidence of a systematic
solution process
- provides minimal explanation of
solution process; may fail to explain or may omit
significant parts of the problem
- does not use mathematical language
or uses it inappropriately
No Attempt ..... 0
- no answer attempted
- no apparent strategy
- no explanation of the solution
process is provided
