Re: stressed..NWR
dont stress over it...you'll do fine. All of my observations are unannounced....It always makes your stomach drop when you walk in and see an administrator standing there...good luck you will do fine!

Re: stressed..NWR
If it makes you feel any better, I'm having my first formal observation in three years on Thursday. (I'm tenured, and my director usually just writes up a major concert rehearsal as our annual observation. I think he got reprimanded this year for doing that last year, so all tenured music teachers have to have a real observation this week.)
