model bridge using hot glue and craft sticks. The project is being used as an assessment for the
objective, "Given basic materials, students will build a 24-inch model bridge that supports a
minimum of 10 pounds." Which standard is aligned with the assessment and objective?
Understand and apply trigonometric ratios.
In order to address the objective, "Students will correctly express at least four of the six
trigonometric ratios when given a labeled right triangle and an angle," a math teacher is giving
an exam with five triangles. Students must write the correct trigonometric ratios for one angle of
each of the five triangles. Which standard is aligned with the objective and assessment?
Name and write chemical formulas.
A chemistry teacher is currently focusing on the objective, "Given chemical compound names,
students will write the correct chemical formulas four out of five times." Which standard is
aligned with the assessment and objective?
