I feel that the song Tiffany chose to do is one that can be very enjoyable to students and for the most part she did a good job with that. For musicianship I gave her a 3/5 because although she knew the wording of the song and did a great job keeping the rythem however, it seemed like she was uncomfortable with her voice and therefore talked it more than sang it. For leadership I gave her an 8/10 because it didn't seem like she was excited to be there at all. She never changed her position and I would have like to see her get more involved with the students. Also although she was laughing along with her students her energy never really seemed to pass through the lesson. Preparation, I felt that a 13/15 was necessary. After just seeing the video it did not seem like there was any musical concept that the students were to be learning. Maybe Tiffany had one in mind but it never shown through, especially to someone who was not present for the lesson plan. I did however, very much like her use of pictures to help the students visualize what they were talking about. Last for overall delivery I gave her a 14/20. I felt that talking about different animals was a great idea for this song and truly thought that it was an exciting idea for the students to learn. Now, i may be mistaken here but as I heard in the video Tiffany also tried to teach about the different letters that the students might hear in that song, and I really don't think that was appropriate for that song and might have been to much for them to learn at once. I also was just really bored with that lesson because never once did the students move. I feel like when a song is lengthy like that you have to give the kids something to do to keep them from getting distracted which it was very apparent that many of them were. Also I noticed that there was absolutely no closure at the end of this lesson and the kids were kind of just left wondering what they did and why. Like I said, I think that this is a very fun song for students to learn about but I feel like more enthusiasm was needed and more student learning to make it a productive lesson plan. I do feel that Tiffany had the right idea and many aspects were great.
I like the song that Tiffany chose it was really fun to sing. Musicianship I gave a 4.5/5. She did a good job. She sang well despite having a terrible headache. She did a good job getting the "students" involved too. Leadership was an 8.5/10 like me her enthusiasm was very low, but I feel her headache probably had something to do with that. Preparation was a 14/15, She did a very good job with preparation. she had examples of animals printed up and she seemed like she knew what she was doing. Overall preparation 17/20, I liked the animals and vowels as non-musical concepts. I would have not though about long vowels being concept in this song. Tiffany did a very good job in presenting when she did not feel well.
