Algebra Rubric Term 3 2021 Name: Owen Booker👀
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:
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 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 and i did it.
Algebra Reflection
Using my the paper to work it out
Talk to someone about:
I would practice and practice until I got it.
Drawing it on my worksheet or I would use my mind sometimes for easy stuff and for hard stuff i would draw it on my sheet.
A bit more time for the worksheet.
Finally post on your Blog
An Example
Progress and what could have been better.
I was working on patterns with numbers rather than having to build a little or big table on my worksheet.
What could have been better was spending more time using tables to help me and a bit more time so i do not have to rush to do my work for school.
