- Check Point #1 will include Lines 1 - 43 only. Equations must be located on the correct line to receive credit! Any "extra" equations that are not on this check point should be below line 43.
- Line 1 should contain the picture you downloaded as a guide. TURN OFF the picture before you print the project.
- Line 28 should be blank unless you had more than 1 picture in which case the second picture should be located here.

- Print your project ( black and white copy is all that is required for this check point. Color copies are permissible but not necessary.)
- Put your name at the top of the page where the first equation (line 2) appears.
- Check to be sure that ALL your equations printed. If they did not, try to print out the additional pages by specifying the page numbers under the print command.
- If there are still missing equations, be sure to include your name, username, password and " REMAINING EQUATIONS ONLINE" message at the top of the rubric page. If you do not write this in the specified area, I will not look for additional equations. ( See picture example below)
- Staple your project in the top left corner. Pages should be in this order!!!
- Page with Equation 1 ( line 2)
- Remaining Equations in numerical order.
- Copy of your picture graph with out the downloaded picture guide(s). If this picture printed on the same page as Equation 1, skip this!
- Rubric- There should be a BLANK rubric attached to the back of your project. ( If you highlighted the equation type as you completed them or put notes in the margin, that is fine, but the CHECK column and the Teacher Comments column should be BLANK) I will pull the rubric off when grading your project so make sure you WRITE YOUR NAME at the top! If you need to print a clean copy, the link to the original rubric file is at the top of this page under the Desmos Rubric button)
