Communicate 4.2.1 Feedback

Here is an example of a math assignment I found that uses a detailed rubric to grade the students' work.

Conics Section Project

Using graph paper, create an image using the major conic sections we have learned about in class:  ellipse, circle, hyperbola, parabolas.  You need to have at least 8 conics in your image.  You may also use lines to complete the image.  Each conic section must then have a correct equation to match it.  You will also need to write the equation of any lines as well.  Creativity, color, and accuracy are important.
