Sight Singing I Strategy and Evaluation Theory Things William Wieland
Sing slowly and keep a steady tempo. Do not pause, stop, or restart. Remember, good posture and breath support improve intonation.

For me, competency means few or no mistakes, e.g. a 4-bar phrase may have one careless mistake. If a performance is of questionable quality, you will perform that level again later in the semester to earn full credit.
If you score 100 before the semester is finished, you may perform Reciting Rhythms and Conducting I, Memorized Singing I, 2-handed Tapping I, or begin Sight Singing II.
