Performing Arts News
The boys in Year 1 have been enjoying a variety of dance activities and tasks in Performing Arts as they explore the elements of dance. They have remembered these elements by using the acronym 'Dance is BEST!' (B = Body, E = Energy, S = Space, T = Time). The boys have had fun creating their own movement sequences in pairs with a farm theme, and did an excellent job of creating each movement to fit into an 8 beat phrase. Once they got a firm handle on the 8 beat pattern, they were able to branch out to learn a dance called "The Banana Peel" as a whole class, and because of their excellent concentration and beat keeping skills, the boys performed the dance with great success!
