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 accurate sketches of the two cylinders accurately obtain the radius or diameter, height and volume of the two cylinders provide clear explanations with appropriate conclusion.
Satisfactory	draw accurate sketches of the two cylinders accurately calculate the base area of at least one cylinder.
Progressing	obtain the radius or diameter, and height of at least one cylinder.

Feedback

Students will receive:

• possible prompt questions related to the assessment Activity to assist their engagement
• written feedback on individual responses to indicate evidence of understanding of the concepts related to volume of a cylinder
• 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.
