This is a great way to introduce dance to a class, or promote a more abstract way of doing physical education. I have done this with nearly all year levels, making it more complex or simple depending on the year level, and they all love it. Definitely promotes team work, cooperation and engagement, whilst also developing fundamental movement skills and hand eye coordination.
Have included Australian Curriculum Links, resource list, diagrams and step by step teacher cues.
