1. I observed Mr. Certalic's Camerata Orchestra at BHS at 7:30 AM
2. I thought that the students did a great job of following instructions quickly and accurately. Also, Mr. Certalic had a wide variety of activities and the students were constantly engaged.
3. The students did a wide variety of warm-ups as a demonstration for us. The four main categories were a call and response echo exercise, scales, etude work, and fiddle tunes
4. The learning objectives here a continued refining of the basic techniques that musicians work on their entire careers: tone, intonation, use of bow, articulation, dynamics, ect
5. Mr. Certalic's class seemed pretty focuses and well behaved. The few times that they did get a little chatty they were quick to quiet down when Mr. Certalic just said "quiet down" or "be quiet"
