This document provides a grading rubric for a crime report assignment. It outlines the key elements that should be included in the report and the point values assigned to each section. The report should include: an introduction stating the problem/question being investigated; observations from the crime scene and lists of evidence and suspects; an initial hypothesis about who committed the crime; an experiment section summarizing how the evidence was tested; an organized analysis of the data and evidence; and a conclusion stating who committed the crime and how the hypothesis changed over time. The assignment choices are divided into three levels based on the student's science inquiry assessment score, with higher levels requiring more complex report formats.
