Algebra Rubric Term 3 2021

Algebra Rubric Term 3 2021                                                    Name: Austin Herries 

Criteria	Level 2 (5ii)	Early Level 3	Level 3	Level 4
Algebraic patterns	Explain the rule for a sequential pattern.	Describe the rules for number patterns	Use tables and graphs to describe rules number patterns	Find rules and formulas for number patterns

My Algebra goals: get better at folding fractions 

Goal	Success Criteria (This is what it will look like when I get there)
I need to explain what the next term of a spatial pattern will be. Eg	To achieve this goal I can say which is the next number, shape or character in the pattern or I know what the next number or shape will be in the next part of the sequence. Eg the next creature is a butterfly. The next pattern will have four triangles.etc.
I can describe what must happen for the next pattern. For example	To achieve this goal I can say what is happening in the patterns eg You add two matches each time to make the next pattern in the sequence. It is going up by 2 each time starting from 3.
I need a strategy to continue a pattern without drawing or building every one.	To achieve this goal I will have a strategy such as a table I can use to work out how many matchsticks there will be needed to make 10 triangles.  Triangles 1 2 3 4 5 Matches 3 5 7 9 11 Each time the difference gets bigger by one so I can work out the 10th pattern without building it.
I need to be able to use a formula to work out the 100th term in a spatial or number pattern	To achieve this goal, I can use letters to represent the term in a sequence that I get from looking at a table and building a formula.   I notice if I double the number of triangles and add 1, I get the number of matches needed so m = double p plus 1. Eg 3 x 2 = 6 plus 1 = 7.

Goal Setting in Algebra

My goal in algebra is to …………………………………………………………………………………………….

Algebra Reflection

Using the two tests, think about your strengths and which gaps you have sorted out. (goals you have achieved). To be completed at the end of the 3 weeks. 

Talk to someone about:

• How you achieved them (you could talk about how quickly you achieved them, some of the learning qualities that helped you achieve them.) 

• What strategies you now have to help you with algebraic problems. (use your rubric)

• What worked well for your learning (what you did or what your teachers did)

• What could have been better (what could you have done better? or what could your teachers have done better?)

Finally post on your Blog 

An Example 

Progress and what could have been better.

Lately I've been improving on my table and shaping colors. I need to work on fencing and growing numbers. I'm getting better because I am learning more and getting less distracted. I am liking algebra more than i used to like less.
