PART I:
Criteria: Teacher Behaviors Grade (1- 5) Next behaviors
1. Eye contact: This is good! Much better than previous semesters.
Teacher maintains eye contact throughout the rehearsal and is out of the score
It really shows that I have been working on making
as much as possible. 5
eye contact and scanning throughout the last few
semesters.
2. Non verbal affect; facial affect: 5 This actually looks pretty good too (I’m a little
Non-verbal affect is pleasant, safe and non-judgmental. Facial affect is pleasant
and reflective of the mood of the piece. surprised 😊). I can tell in the video that I was
excited to be there and feeding off of the energy
and the facial affect definitely reflected that. Keep
this one up!
3. Emotional tone, mood, humor: 5 I was having so much fun on this day! I know that
Emotional tone is pleasant, safe and non-judgmental. Verbal/speaking voice and
style of interaction is empowering, joyful and positive.
some of the days later in the semester when we
started our Christmas pieces were not quite this
joyful, so what I showed in this video is something
to keep striving for.
4. Use of speaking voice: 4 Sometimes I do drop down and get a little throaty
The speaking voice is used a mirror of the singing voice. Speaking is not too loud,
forced, varied and expressive. The teacher is not speaking on the cords or
when I am talking and nervous. It was hard to tell in
speaking without resonance. Teacher does not speak over the choir. The choir this video though because I was sick, so that is
does not talk through the rehearsal. something I need to be able to fight through.
5. Use of the room:
The classroom is arranged in workstation areas. The teacher uses it effectively
throughout the rehearsal, moving around the classroom to engage students in
all parts of the room.
6. Classroom management:
Teacher has many skills that manage behaviors, transitions, and is inspiring to
their students. Teacher manages the energy of the classroom and the students.

Teacher has prepared a rehearsal guide in advance of teaching a piece, and uses
this guide to inform, pace, and sequence the learning in rehearsals.
1. Pacing: 4
Teacher demonstrates an active, crisp tempo in rehearsals that keeps students
There were definitely some points where I feel like I
engaged and on task. Use of a considered vocal style, and a practiced style is talked too much in between tasks, but since we had
evident. such simple lessons that day it was nice to have
some humor and anecdotes in between.
2. Direct Instruction (DI): 3
Teacher demonstrates a DI model that gives academic instruction (1a’s) in
manageable chunks, allows students to perform or discuss academic content
(2p, 2v) and gives reinforcements with specific related feedback (verbal 3v/n-sr 1’s and 2’s were pretty good, however the 3’s were
approval or disapproval). lacking relation and specificity.
10. Warm-ups:
2- 5 warm-ups are presented in a 7 minute span that have: a body work &or
breathing component, an initial descending pattern, an exercise for solfege, a
range extension exercise, and a harmonic exercise. At least one warm-up is done
in reference to the material to be covered in the lesson itself.
11. Sequence of lesson chunks:
The lesson is sequenced in manageable chunks that accomplish the goals,
reference the rehearsal threads and use in correlation to the “golden mean”
proportion for the given length of the rehearsal period. There is a clear
scaffolding and sequencing present.
12. Use of solfege
