Webb’s Depth of Knowledge based Tiered Assessment

1. ​Decide whether each statement is True or False (circle your choice)

a) A parallelogram has congruent diagonals. T/F
b) A rhombus has interior angles that add to 360 degrees. T/F
c) All rectangles are parallelograms. T/F
d) A square can have an interior angle greater than 90 degrees. T/F

This would be classified as a level one because it requires recall the properties of the different
quadrilaterals.

2.​ Three of the four vertices of a kite are A (-5,2) , B (-2,5) and C (7,2). What is the fourth vertex?

This would be classified as a high level one because ​involves recalling the properties of a kite and
applying its properties.

3. Name BOTH possible fourth vertices that would make the diagram an isosceles trapezoid.

This would be classified as a level two because the student would ​demonstrate conceptual
understanding by interpreting the graph and applying the properties of a trapezoid. The students have
to make a decisions about how to approach the problem.
4. ​Given points A, B, C and D as plotted on the coordinate plane below

Determine the most specific quadrilateral classification: __________________________

Justification Statement: Using complete sentences, use your mathematical proof and understanding of the
properties of quadrilaterals, to convince the reader that your quadrilateral classification is correct.

This would be classified as a level three because a student would show reasoning and planning to
justify a conjecture of determining what polygon is on the graph. The student is also using concepts to
solve a non-routine problem.
