Unit Summary
A thematic approach reinforces Action-Space-Dynamics-Relationships introducing further constituents to expand dance knowledge. Pupils apply imagination, creativity and skill when making artistic decisions with others. Performance opportunities support reflection and allow interpretation.
Lesson Summary
You will learn to apply a variety of dynamics (speed and force) to your actions.
Key Notes
- Move: using dynamics with actions by changing the speed and force, helps us to communicate the idea.
- Think: being able to understand the actions of others requires imagination.
- Feel: we demonstrate courage when we perform actions different to others in the group.
- Connect: sharing space with others without stopping them from performing their actions requires fairness.
Vocabulary To Learn
- speed: how fast or slow an action is performed
- force: how gentle or powerfully an action is performed
- dynamics: the combination of speed and force
Common Mistakes To Avoid
- Dynamics describes how fast an action is performed.
3 Quick Questions (With Answers)
1. Explain the lesson in two key points.
Move: using dynamics with actions by changing the speed and force, helps us to communicate the idea. Think: being able to understand the actions of others requires imagination.
2. What does this key word mean in this lesson? 'speed'
how fast or slow an action is performed.
3. Correct this common mistake.
Mistake: Dynamics describes how fast an action is performed. Correction: Dynamics involves both speed and force. Some words do mean speed, e.g. quick, whereas others only talk about force, e.g. strong. However some words might mean both, e.g. explosive would be both fast and strong.
