Dance Genre Project

Over the next few days, you will become an expert on a certain style or genre of dance! This can be anything that we have not yet studied in class.  Do some research as to what your top three choices would be.  Write me an email with your preferred choices with 1 being the top choice and 3 being your last choice.  Also, tell me who you are working with.
After you have done this, confirm with me what style of dance you will be researching.  You will construct a teaching outline that you will use when you teach the class.  Please see the following documents.
