This week in PE, class 5/6O have been exploring dance and developing their creative movement skills. The children worked collaboratively to create their own dance sequences using a range of actions, including extend, travel, kick, slide, tilt, ripple, jump, fall and twist.
As their confidence grew, the children also explored different dynamics, thinking carefully about how movements could be performed in different ways to add expression and interest to their dances. They experimented with making movements slow, robotic, pulsing, fluid, sharp and explosive, helping them to communicate different ideas and emotions through movement.
To celebrate their hard work, the children had the opportunity to showcase their dances to the class. It was wonderful to see so much creativity, teamwork and enthusiasm, with many pupils choosing to perform and share their routines. We are very proud of the effort, confidence and imagination they demonstrated throughout the unit.
