Description

A pure approach deepens understanding of Action-Space-Dynamics-Relationships and how to create, develop and analyse ideas, motifs and dances. Pupils select and combine key elements to create effects, drawing parallels between communication methods and illustrate how artistic processes are applied.

Pupils will respond to clearly scaffolded stimuli, allowing a broader and deeper text-based experience linking to the year 2 unit on the Weather, applying the use of spatial elements such as size, level and direction as well as the accuracy of placement and emphasis. Working independently and collaboratively pupils create, perform and analyse dances employing focus, extension, flexibility, control, coordination, stamina and balance, and introduces pupils to form and structure supporting their choreographic knowledge of composing short dances using motifs effectively and accurately.
