After we complete a show, the class discusses what they learned, how they grew, etc.  Sometimes I make pages for each student, and they all write something complimentary on each others' papers. Sometimes they do a self-assessment.  I usually attach a grade to their performance so they sometimes grade themselves based on a rubric.  

We just completed our first musical then went off to spring break.  I'm trying to think of something a little more original that we haven't done in the past to reflect and assess their performances and the production in general.  Any fresh ideas out there?

 Thank you!
