Singing in Music Theory?

How much singing do music theory classes usually incorporate, and will I have to sing by myself too?
I am just nervous about the singing because i have never had to sight read music and sing the notes.

I just recently took a music theory class myself. The only singing we did were notes, scales, etc. For example, you’ll start out on a tonic note and you’ll have to sing up or down to the note you’re trying to determine. It’s fairly easy. You don’t have to be a great singer to sing notes and it depends on the teacher/professor whether or not you’ll be singing in front of the class. Don’t sweat it though! I thought it was an easy class aside from some theory exercises. You’ll learn what you need to learn in order to sight read music and sing notes.
