Why this why now
Pupils will utilise key subject knowledge through a language-based stimuli with opportunities to create and interpret movement in a literal or abstract manner, making concrete connections between other curriculum areas. Pupils apply placement, alignment, extension and focus to performance, demonstrating refinement of balance, control, coordination and personal style. Collaboration supports a wider movement vocabulary and range of ideas leading to the development of methods and aesthetic sensibilities. Pupils offer justification and interpretations of their choreography.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils can respond to different stimuli.
- Pupils are able to use a range of different, controlled movements.
- Pupils can name a wide range of movements with some detail in their spatial or dynamic qualities.
- Pupils know how to coordinate and control their bodies to perform movements.
- Pupils can move in a variety of ways.
- Pupils will be able to link movements together in sequence.
- Pupils can respond to a movement instruction.
