Dance in the general classroom

Lina and Niki you made some great points about dance/movement. An interesting activity I got out of the tute, and one that could be done in between subjects or before/after lunch etc. was this one:

All stand in a circle, pick someone to form a position in the middle then pick another to attach themselves to the first; do this up to 6 people. Ask another person to walk around and one by one tap the 'statues' on the shoulder so that the remaining individuals are left telling a visual story. Discuss/interpret.

The workshops we did for k-8 are posted on the 'lesson ideas' page under 'Fiona Reilly's dance workshops'.
