The first one is a playing test assessment form. I'm sure many of you have these kinds of rubrics that you use for playing tests. I'm always trying to come up with one that will be quick and easy to use - yet student friendly.
If you have one you want to share - feel free! I used a great site: http://www.rcampus.com/indexrubric.cfm
to search for a similar rubric (it was theater - not music) and alter it as needed.
The next pic is of my post concert evaluation form or PCE's as they're know to my students. Not only to these fit the 'writing requirements' so many of us are expected to include in our curriculum, but they are a great way to get the kids to actually think about their concert experience.
Often, writing can be like pulling teeth for middle school students (boys in particular). This year I tried to vary the PCE's by using a different format for each. Since this was towards the end of our school year, I used an interview format. The students each received a sheet and were required to move around the room to ask their classmates the various questions. In order to keep kids from being lazy and just asking those around them, I had 2 rules: 1. They could NOT ask the same person anything! 2. They had a set number of minutes/seconds to ask the questions and record their answers. This was a fun, social way for them to evaluate their performance and for a few of them - they got to interact with kids outside their normal social circle!
Like I said before, I am working this summer to put these into a format where folks can download and customize. Hopefully, I'll have some of those up soon.
