Dance apparel should be in next week, and the deadline for payment is quickly approaching (09/13/13). I will not be in class on Wednesday or Friday, so please make arrangements to pay on Tuesday or Thursday. If not, please let me know on an individual basis. Also, if you would rather pay through PayPal, email your email address to me at edavis@rps.k12.ar.us, and I will send that on to Kat!
So far this year we have talked about the history of dance; more specifically, we have discussed the prehistory of dance. There have been discussions of different styles of ritual dance including dances for death and rebirth, for health and destruction, for entertainment, and more!
To apply some of our new knowledge, I asked the students to choose a fairy tale with a group and bring it to life. Students worked over a couple of class periods to create their stories with limited words, and they presented these to the class. One group even requested to be videotaped and put on this blog! I have their permission, so please enjoy Sage, Chris, Madi, and Emily's version of Goldilocks and the 3 Bears!

DeleteOverall though, it was an interesting spin on Goldilocks. I must admit, I did like when the chair broke....before the performance. I just wish we could have had all our groups posted... I think this group was the only one with as much moxie to let themselves be filmed.
