DANCE

THE ARTS – DANCE 

Each class has been learning set moves for a dance over the last few weeks.  Prep-Yr 3 have learnt the dance called “Green Fingernails” and we certainly have some very energetic dancers!   

Last week in small groups, the students innovated the dance moves to make it their own and finished with their own dance stance. It was lots of fun, at the same time learning how the different elements of dance are important.  The students now move onto doing some choreography for their own dance moves and making it all fit to music.    

SLH have been looking at the genre of disco, learning specific moves and innovating their own moves to a set piece of music “You should be Dancing”.  They will move onto choreograph a set of repetitive dance moves now in groups, exploring the elements of tempo, travel sequences, levels and relationships in a dance.  

It is wonderful to see the students so enthusiastic!
