 Post Rehearsal or Lesson Reflections

Content Adjustment: Based on diagnostic and formative assessments during today’s lesson/rehearsal, list any repertoire
or activities that were omitted from the plan. Why? Will the omitted items need to be included in tomorrow’s
lesson/rehearsal?

N/A

Rehearsal or Lesson Adjustment: If you were going to re-teach today’s lesson/rehearsal, how would you have done it
differently.

I would have rehearsed measures 119 – 126 more than I did. I didn’t because I wanted to make sure we had time to get
through the pre-test.

Reflection on Teaching: Analyze and evaluate your lesson/rehearsal and classroom management.

Again, I think my pacing when rehearsing the isolated measures was a bit too rushed. While doing the pre-test, though, the
students who were not playing were being good about practicing and staying engaged. There was one instance where I had
to tell two trombone players to stop talking, but that was it.

Pre-test: Rating from 1 – 5 with 5 being the highest number of points possible
