Last week we watched some people doing an African dance on Youtube and we used this as a stimulus for creating our own dances. So far we have put together a two step dance sequence. We will be building onto our dance routine this week. We are also doing dance with Miss Pender. Shannon’s group got to share their dance routine ideas with the class.
Our Africa influence also went into our drama lesson this week as we used a short film about lions as a stimulus for our drama lesson. We were learning to take on the features of lions and demonstrate this by moving like them. Our next steps is to work as a group and show a pride of lions and how they react towards one and other.
In music we were learning to play the xylophones by ear. We were listening to the ‘Skye Boat Song’ and we were trying to work out what notes we needed to play to create the tune.
