-what is a ray?
4. How many of your stars are in the same plane? How can you be sure?
5. How many stars are collinear?
6. How do you find the distance between any two stars using the coordinate plane?
5. How do you find the midpoint between any two stars using the coordinate plane?
6. Describe the geometric term "space" using your constellation.

Consider these factors in your writing and strive to be an expert:

Novice

• There is no explanation of the solution, the explanation cannot be understood or it is unrelated to the problem.
• There is no use, or mostly inappropriate use, of mathematical terminology and notation.

Apprentice

• There is an incomplete explanation, it may not be clearly presented.
• There is some use of mathematical terminology and notation appropriate of the problem.

Practitioner

• There is a clear explanation.
• There is effective use of mathematical terminology and notation.

Expert

• There is a clear, effective explanation de- tailing how the problem is solved. All of the steps are included so that the reader does not need to infer how and why decisions were made.
• Mathematical representation is actively used as a means of communicating ideas related to the solution of the problem.
• There is precise and appropriate use of mathematical terminology and notation.
