Movement and speech enhance status portrayal. | The actors establish status and status changes in a generally committed manner. Movement and speech are generally consistent with status portrayal. | The actors sometimes establish status and status changes in a committed manner.

| Vocal Skills | Plot | Characterization | Production Aspects | |
| A/A-
Exemplary |
Lines are delivered with consistent clarity. | The plot, as scripted, is completely logical in flow and develops to a powerful climax in performance. | Characters are excellently established and developed through well-considered specifics in script and performance. | Props and costumes are well-prepared and enhance the scene. |
| B+/B/B-
Proficient |
Lines are generally delivered with clarity. | The plot, as scripted, is generally logical in flow and develops to an effective climax in performance. | Characters are credibly established and developed through appropriate specifics in script and performance. | The props and costumes are consistently functional. |
| C+/C/C-
Developing |
Lines are delivered with inconsistent clarity. | The plot, as scripted, presents one or two notable problems in logical flow but develops to a recognizable climax in performance. | One or both of the characters are only sometimes credibly established and delineated through specifics in script and performance. | There are clear but inconsistent attempts at prop and costume preparation. |
| D+/D/D-
Emerging |
Clarity needs lots of work. | The plot, as scripted, is generally problematic and illogical. A climax is lacking. | Both characters, in general, lack credibility in script and performance. | There appears to be scant to no preparation of props and costumes. |
Lesson Plan for Block D, Jan. 26

I am aware that some groups have not presented their script readings to the class for feedback. They will do so next meeting. Having gone through a whole period of critiquing, everyone has an awareness of what we are looking for. Please refer to the partial rubric below.
This period, please rehearse the scenes you have written. Again, please refer to the rubric below to guide you. If, in the process of rehearsal, you recognize problems (in logic, flow, credibility, etc.), revise/refine your script in anticipation of a class critique this Friday. You will find that, with constant repetition and refinement today, your lines will be memorized. For homework, print out a new copy of your refined scripts and be prepared to perform this Friday.
To those whose partner is absent for any reason, revise your scene and bring the second draft to class next meeting. If you are satisfied with the rewrite, join another group as a responder and offer that group feedback. Please do not sit idly, as I will request our substitute teacher to add you to another group as a responder if she/he feels you are not using time productively. (To my Kind Substitute: Feel free to ask a group to perform to the class if it looks like they are “done” with their refinements.) Have the class critique them using the rubric.
This is the partial rubric for our original scenes. Movement and voice criteria will be incorporated next week.
