Teacher Assessment Rubrics Overview Teacher assessment rubrics provide a fast, concrete formative assessment to be used in preparation for summative formal assessments. The rubrics attempt to create clear, observable student outcomes that can be easily identified by both student and teacher. TEACHER CHECKLIST RUBRICS Rubrics to check for understanding are an invaluable tool to evaluate student understanding of basic concepts. Because choral classes are often large, it is often impracticable, if not impossible to evaluate an entire class in one rehearsal. The checklists provided are simple “yes/no” evaluators. When evaluated the student either receives full credit for the item or no credit. Some tips for success with the checklists: 1. Pre-print the rubrics and have names of each student on the rubric before the assessment period. This can be done by simply writing names, or by creating a sheet of computer labels that can be printed and placed on the rubrics anytime they are needed during the school year. It is helpful to have something to store rubrics in so they are ready to be used during class (an index card box works well) 2. Set a period in which students will all be evaluated on a rubric (1 week, 3 days, etc). Know how many students will need to be evaluated during each rehearsal in order to stay on schedule. 3. Randomly select the desired number of assessments before class and have them out and ready. It is important that the students be assessed randomly rather than choosing to assess a student when they are “caught” doing something wrong. This will provide a more accurate representation of the students performance. 4. When assessing a student simply mark a check (yes) or x (no). For grading purposes divide the total number of points you would like to assign to the rubric by the number of observable traits. (A 100 point assessment with 4 points will receive a grade of 0, 25, 50, 75, or 100) 5. Be sure students are allowed to see the rubric and their grade after assessment. The rubrics will only be effective if students receive this feedback and have the opportunity to self-correct before the next assessment. 6. THE GOAL IS MASTERY - Feel free to re-assess and replace grades as needed. In addition to the provided rubrics, a blank form has been provided for the creation of rubrics specific to your classroom instruction. MUSIC READING RUBRICS Music reading rubrics are designed to provide quick assessment of reading skills and provide students feedback about their performance. Use a highlighter (or just circle) to mark the level of measurement that best describes the skill. Rhythm Reading Rubric Designed for testing rhythm skills alone using flashcards or any rhythmic reading line. Can be used with Kodaly rhythm syllables, or by counting numbers. Melodic Reading Rubric Designed for testing melodic reading skills using solfege Sight-Singing Rubric Sample An advanced sight-reading rubric with an area for quick feedback to return to students. This is included as an example and for use for those wanting to do more intense sight-reading assessment PERFORMANCE RUBRICS The performance rubrics included are samples that were developed for a middle school testing system over 4 nine weeks of instruction with increasingly demanding elements.

Teacher Assessment Rubrics! Overview!!!

Teacher assessment rubrics provide a fast, concrete formative assessment to be used in preparation for summative formal assessments. The rubrics attempt to create clear, observable student outcomes that can be easily identified by both student and teacher.!!

TEACHER CHECKLIST RUBRICS !!Rubrics to check for understanding are an invaluable tool to evaluate student understanding of basic concepts. Because choral classes are often large, it is often impracticable, if not impossible to evaluate an entire class in one rehearsal. The checklists provided are simple “yes/no” evaluators. When evaluated the student either receives full credit for the item or no credit. Some tips for success with the checklists:!

This can be done by simply writing names, or by creating a sheet of computer labels that can be printed and placed on the rubrics anytime they are needed during the school year. It is helpful to have something to store rubrics in so they are ready to be used during class (an index card box works well)!

2. Set a period in which students will all be evaluated on a rubric (1 week, 3 days, etc). Know how many students will need to be evaluated during each rehearsal in order to stay on schedule.!

3. Randomly select the desired number of assessments before class and have them out and ready. It is important that the students be assessed randomly rather than choosing to assess a student when they are “caught” doing something wrong.
