In Level C, students explore dance. They learn about how dance can represent the world and they make dances to represent their ideas about the world. They share their dance with peers and experience dance as audiences.
Students become aware of their bodies and learn about the body bases, parts and zones used safely in dance. They explore space, time and dynamics as they make and observe dances. Students explore locomotor and non-locomotor movements and use these fundamental movement skills in their own dance. They experiment with simple technical and expressive skills.
Students experience dances from a range of cultures, times and locations, including dances from cultures in their local community.
By the end of Level C, students follow safe dance practice to make and share dance sequences and movement patterns.
Students communicate ideas and feelings about aspects of their own and others’ dance.
