Our Middle Schoolers shared their first choreographed piece today at Primary Assembly. All up seven compositions were shared with the school. The students were asked to do the following:
1. Choose a message they wanted to communicate (Expressive Intent)
2. Develop a group of steps that would recur throughout the dance for their motif and would clearly demonstrate their Expressive Intent
3. Develop a second motif that contrasted the first but also demonstrated the Expressive Intent
4. Manipulate both motif A and B to create an A-B-A dance form where they returned to motif A at the end of their piece
5. Choose a piece of music after they started that had no words but would make sense with their Expressive Intent.
The students did really well for a first go and can be congratulated for their success!
