Primary 6/7 have been doing some creative dance linked to their topic about the Rainforest. Today they listened to a piece of music then worked in groups to come up with some moves to fit to the beat of the music and tell a story. The groups worked hard to create flow in the dance and worked on performing in time with each other.
Timing proved to be a challenge for some groups and was identified as a next step.
Here are a few photos from today’s session.
Yesterday Primary 6/7 (and Greenrigg Primary 7s) worked with Andy McKechnie all day on speaking in public. He taught the pupils some drills on how to help project their voice, speak at a steady pace and add expression to their voices.
Pupils used these skills to teach the other classes a dance/fitness routine (with the help of Andy). There was then a showcase where the classes showed each other what they had learned.
Pupils from all classes enjoyed working with Andy. Primary 6/7 pupils gained confidence through the event and the skills will help them when they come to present their individual c
lass talks and with the Summer Show.
Here are a few pictures from yesterday:
The school participated in a dance workshop today run by our after-school dance teacher. Pupils got to try out a range of moves and dance games and had lots of fun.
Here are some photographs from the Primary 4 and 6/7 session:
