Directions: Please evaluate the student teacher’s performance for each subheading using the following
key:
(DP) – Developing; (A) Approaching (M) – Meets; (E) – Exceeds

The summary rating should be the mathematical average of the subheading scores for the standard.
When the average falls between two levels, professional judgment should be used to determine what the
summary rating should be.

Explanation of scoring:

Developing (DP) Student is not meeting the specified performance proficiency or did not provide evidence
Approaching (A) Student demonstrates quality or provides evidence of performance that is approaching proficient
Meets (M) Student demonstrates quality or provides evidence of performance that is proficient
Exceeds (E) Student demonstrates quality or provides evidence of performance that goes beyond proficient

Summary Rating: The summary rating should be derived from the average of the subheading scores.
