Week 2 Dance


Dance Workshop 1 - 15/3/12

                                      

Dear Diary,




In Today’s workshop, I participated and developed further knowledge to differentiate between the physical and social learning in dance. I was introduced to five new dance actions: Leap, jump, twist, hop, and clap. By having this stimulus around the classroom, it helped me to focus, attend to any type of activities that had to be developed and shared in the classroom. In regards to future implications, I would use those five dance actions flash cards and assemble them appropriately according to the structure and layout of the classroom and depending on where the students are positioned around the classroom. In applying this strategy into the classroom, it allows students to work independently, share skills and knowledge amongst their peers, become motivated and participate in all classroom activities and students are able to use those five dance actions as a guide to how they might want to demonstrate and present their constructed dance performance.
