Dance/Drama

Maui catches the sun

 

We participated in our syndicate production called "Maui catches the sun." 

We helped to chose some dance actions to go with the lyrics in the song "Slow down sun." We danced and acted and we were very brave when we performed in front of an audience. 

We were learning to:

• Use our knowledge of daily activities/chores to create movements
• Create and perform a movement phrase using locomotor and non-locomotor moves 
• Work cooperatively with another child when creating and performing a dance sequence 
• Discuss how facial expression, movement, and gesture can be used to create meaning   

This is us practicing our dance
