Description
This guide aims to engage children in developing control, co-ordination, balance, poise and elevation in the basic actions of travelling, jumping, turning and gesture and stillness. It aims to show them how to perform movements or patterns, including some from existing dance traditions. It also aims to show children how to express feelings, moods, ideas, responding to music, by using rhythmic responses and contrasts of speed, shape, direction and level. It includes detailed lesson plans for years 1-2, and is up to date with the national curriculum. It also outlines both what to teach and how to teach it well.
