Presentation
 4 Very neat: it is clear you planned your drawing on a another piece of paper before starting; you used pencil to sketch your dig site before tracing over all lines in pen; space is used well and everything has a clear place. Color is effectively used throughout and reflects strong effort.
 3 Mostly neat: you may have planned or used pencil before tracing over in pen; most space is used well, though there may be a little crowding of pictures/writing in some places. Color is used throughout, though may not fully be effective.
Some effort is reflected in the coloring techniques.
 1-2 Somewhat neat: you show a little planning though it may still all be in pencil.
Space is unclear or too crowded with other parts left ‘wide-open’. Color may or
4 may not be used but is not effective or sloppy.
