|Points |Student Response |

|4 |The focus of the task is finding the volume of a three-dimensional cylindrical object and describing changes in the |

| |volume of a three-dimensional object when the measurements of the object are changed. The response provides a |

| |correct strategy to find the number of cubic inches of stuffing Carson will need to make the pillow AND a comparison|

| |of the amount of stuffing needed when Carson doubles the length to the amount of stuffing needed when he doubles the|

| |diameter. The response also shows or explains all calculations. |

| | |

| |Sample Correct Responses: |

| |Work for 6-inch diameter pillow: |

| |V = r²h |

| |V = x3²x15 |

| |V = 424.12 in³ |

| |Carson needs 424.12 in³ of stuffing for the 6-inch diameter pillow |

| |Work for 12-inch diameter pillow (doubles diameter): |

| |V = r²h |

| |V = x6²x15 |

| |V = 1696.46 in³ |

| |Carson needs 1696.46 in³ of stuffing for the 12-inch diameter pillow |

| |Work for the 30-inch long pillow (doubles the length): |

| |V = r²h |

| |V = x3²x 30 |

| |V = 848.23 in³ 1696.46 / 848.23 = 2 |

| | |

| |Carson would only need ½ the amount of stuffing if he doubles the length compared to if he doubles the diameter OR |

| |The amount of stuffing needed for the larger pillow is more than the amount needed for the smaller pillow. |

|3 |The response provides clear evidence of finding the volume of a three dimensional cylindrical object and describing |

| |changes in the volume of a three-dimensional object when the measurements of the object are changed; however, the |

| |solution is incomplete, slightly flawed with a minor calculation error. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |Finds all three volumes correctly but makes no comparisons. |

| |Makes a calculation error when finding volume (the same error may be carried out through all three volume |

| |calculations), and makes an accurate comparison based on those errors. |

| |Calculation errors include: |

| |Not properly squaring the radius |

| |Using the diameter instead of the radius but squares correctly. |

| |Using πdh or 2πrh to find volume. |

| |Doubling the diameter. |

|2 |The response provides partial evidence of finding the volume of a three-dimensional cylindrical object and |

| |describing changes in the volume of a three-dimensional object when the measurements of the object are changed; |

| |however, the solution is incomplete or slightly flawed. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |Provides a correct strategy to find the number of cubic inches of stuffing Carson will need to make the original |

| |pillow, showing or explaining most calculations. |

| |Provide a correct comparison of the amount of stuffing needed when Carson doubles the length to the amount of |

| |stuffing needed when he doubles the diameter, based on flawed calculations. |

| |Provide a strategy to find the number of cubic inches of stuffing Carson will need to make the pillow AND a |

| |comparison of the amount of stuffing needed when Carson doubles the length to the amount of stuffing needed when he |

| |doubles the diameter; but, contains multiple calculation errors. |

| |State for 12-inch-diameter pillow (doubled the diameter) |

| |V = dh |

| |V = x12x15 |

| |V = 565.49 in³ |

| | |

| |For 30-inch-long pillow (doubles the length): |

| |V = dh |

| |V = x6x30 |

| |V = 565.49 in³ 565.49/ 565.49 = 1 |

| |Carson would need the same amount of stuffing if he doubles the length instead of doubling the diameter. |

|1 |The response provides minimal evidence of finding the volume of a three-dimensional cylindrical object and |

| |describing changes in the volume of a three-dimensional object when the measurements of the object are changed; |

| |however, the solution is incomplete or flawed. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |Provide a partially correct strategy to find the number of cubic inches of stuffing Carson will need to make the |

| |pillow with multiple calculation errors and no comparison. |

| |Provide an inadequate comparison of the amount of stuffing needed when Carson doubles the length to the amount of |

| |stuffing needed when he doubles the diameter with multiple calculation errors. |

|0 |The response provides inadequate evidence of finding the volume of a three-dimensional cylindrical object and |

| |describing changes in the volume of a three-dimensional object when the measurements of the object are changed. The |

| |response provides irrelevant information or major flaws in reasoning. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |State that doubling the length is definitely going to be much larger than doubling the diameter because the length |

| |is a bigger number to begin with. |

| |Be blank or make unrelated statements. |

|2 |The focus of this task is solving problems involving proportional relationships and scale factors. The response |

| |provides the scale factor for the two pools and work showing how it was found. It gives the length of Troy's pool, |

| |with supporting work. |

| | |

| |Exemplar Response: |

| |• The scale factor used to build Troy's pool is 1/4. I found it by comparing the width of Troy's pool (625 cm = 6.25|

| |m) to the width of the Olympic-size pool: 6.25 / 25 = 1/4. To find the length of Troy's pool, I divided the length |

| |of the Olympic-size pool by 4: 50 ÷ 4 = 12.5. Troy's pool is 12.5 meters long. |

| |• The width of Troy's pool compared to the width of the larger pool is 625:2500 or 1:4. To find the length of Troy's|

| |pool: 625/2500 = x/5000 , x = 1250 cm. The length of Troy's pool is 1250 centimeters. |

| |• 625 cm = 6.25 m. The scale factor of Troy's pool to the Olympic-size pool is 6.25 / 25 or 1/4. The length and |

| |width of Troy's pool are ¼ the length and width of the larger pool. ¼ of 50 is 12.5, so the length of Troy's pool is|

| |12.5 meters. |

| | |

| |NOTE: A scale factor of 4:1 or 4 is acceptable, provided the response shows or states the relationship correctly. |

|1 |The response shows partial evidence of solving problems involving proportional relationships and scale factors; |

| |however, the solution may be incomplete or slightly flawed. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |• Provide only the length of Troy's pool, with supporting work but no scale factor. |

| |• Provide only the scale factor, with supporting work. |

| |• Provide the scale factor and length but show no work. |

| |• Find an incorrect scale factor but use it correctly to arrive at a length for Troy's pool. |

|0 |The response provides inadequate evidence of solving problems involving proportional relationships and scale |

| |factors. The response provides major flaws in explanations, or irrelevant information. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |• State an incorrect length. |

| |• Restate the information provided in the item. |

| |• Be blank or give irrelevant information. |

|2 |The focus of the task is to provide evidence of converting units within the same measurement system to figure out |

| |the number of 8-ounce servings. The response indicates the correct number of servings/cups AND provides work showing|

| |the correct conversion of units. 1 quart = 32 ounces and 1 gallon = 128 ounces, so Coach Larson has a total of 160 |

| |ounces of punch. At 8 ounces per serving/cup (160 oz ÷ 8 oz = 20), she can make 20 servings/cups. |

| |Sample correct responses: |

| |[pic] |

| |4 servings + 16 servings = 20 servings, there would be 20 servings in all. |

| |1 quart = 32 ounces = 4 cups. 1 gallon = 4 quarts. 4 x 4 = 16. 16 + 4 = 20. She can make 20 cups (servings). |

| | |

| |NOTE: Other conversion methods are acceptable (e.g., gallons to cups, quarts to cups). |

|1 |The response indicates partial evidence of how to convert units of measure; however, the solution is incomplete or |

| |slightly flawed. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |• Make one correct conversion and one incorrect conversion. |

| |• Indicate that one quart is 32 ounces and one gallon is the same as 128 ounces, and state that Coach Larson has 160|

| |ounces of punch. |

| |• State the correct answer without providing work (e.g., 20 cups can be made with this recipe). |

| |• Use an inaccurate conversion but show an appropriate process. |

|0 |The response indicates inadequate evidence of how to convert units of measure. The response may have major flaws or |

| |be completely incorrect. |

| | |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |• State that a gallon is larger than a quart. |

| |• ¼ Inch = 1 foot, therefore 1 inch = 4 feet, so 4 × 2 = 8, and 4 × 4 = 16. Dimension of kitchen is 8 feet by 16 |

| |feet. |

| |• ¼ inch = 1 foot; ½ inch = 2 feet, ¾ inch = 3 feet, 1 inch = 4 feet. So length = 4 × 4 = 16 feet and width = 2 × 4 |

| |= 8 feet |

| |• ¼ inch = 1 foot; ¼ inch = 12 inches; 1 inch = 48 inches; length = 48 × 4 = 192 inches; width = 48 × 2 = 96 inches.|

| | |

| |• (1/4) /1 = 2/x so x = 8 feet = width AND (1/4) /1 = 4/y so y = 16 feet = length |

| | |

| |The focus of the task is solving problems involving scale factors. The response includes the correct dimensions of |

| |the kitchen AND includes work or an explanation that shows how to find the length and width. Answers are labeled |

| |with the appropriate units. |

|1 |The response provides partial evidence of solving problems involving scale factors; however, the solution is |

|2 |Sample Correct Responses: |

| |The box is a rectangular prism with length 4, width 6 and height 9. Volume 4×6×9=216 cubic in. Surface area: 2(4)(9)|

| |+ 2(4)(6) + 2(9)(6)=228 sq in. This is less than the surface area of Box A, which is: 2(3)(9) + 2(3)(8) + 2(9)(8) = |

| |246 sq in. |

| |The box is a cube with height, length and width all equal to 6 inches. The volume of this cube will be 216 cubic |

| |inches (6×6×6) and the surface area is 2(6×6)+2(6×6)+2(6×6)=216 square inches. This is less than the surface area of|

| |Box A, which is: 2(3)(9) + 2(3)(8) + 2(9)(8) = 246 sq in. |

| | |

| |The focus of the task is to understand the difference between surface area and volume and that objects may have the |

| |same volume but different surface areas. The response includes an appropriate sketch or description of a different |

| |box that has the same volume, 216 cubic inches, but a smaller surface area than Box A. The response shows work or |

| |provides an adequate explanation to verify that the box has the same volume but a smaller surface area. A sketch and|

| |dimensions may or may not be provided. |

|1 |The response provides partial evidence of understanding the difference between surface area and volume and that |

| |objects may have the same volume but different surface areas; however, the solution may be incomplete or slightly |

| |flawed. |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |• Include an appropriate drawing or description of a different box with dimensions that result in the same volume |

| |with greater surface area or without stating surface area. |

| |• Provide an adequate explanation but minor calculation errors contribute to a volume that is not equal to 216 or a |

| |surface area that is not less than 246. |

|0 |The response provides inadequate evidence of understanding the difference between surface area and volume and that |

| |objects may have the same volume but different surface areas. The response provides major flaws in reasoning or |

| |irrelevant information. |

| |For example, the response may: |

| |• Draw a box with length 200, height 8 and width 8. 200 + 8 + 8 = 216. |
