This document provides a rubric for evaluating student declamations. It rates students on volume, posture/eye contact, movement/gestures, clarity of speech, preparedness, and accuracy. The top rating is a 4, given for loud and clear delivery that maintains eye contact and natural movement. Lower ratings of 3, 2, and 1 are given for softer volume, less eye contact, distracting gestures, unclear speech, and lack of preparation or reliance on scripts. Students are expected to fully memorize their pieces and may lose points for needing line prompts. Video submissions are due by certain weeks for elimination rounds and the final contest.
