Telling Stories through Dance : Grade Level: K-2
http://www.pbs.org/wnet/dancin/resources/lesson_plan-d1.html Telling Stories through Dance : Grade Level: K-2 For young children, body language is their first language. Gestures, expressive movements and postures are well known to teachers as ways children communicate their feelings, thoughts, and ideas. Whether sullenly slumped down in the desk chair, jumping for joy, or twirling madly on the playground, the child's movements can convey meaning and tell a story. Movement activities provide a natural pathway for young children to integrate, communicate, and express learning. |
