NOTES FOR TEACHERS
The development of American Jazz dance from the 1930s to 1975 was influenced by a combination of social, economic, and historical events – this is context. Key figures like Gene Kelly, Jerome Robbins, Bob Fosse, and others played significant roles in shaping this art form and AQA want you to be able to put this into context when writing your essays. Below are some of the key events and contributors that impacted American Jazz dance during this period. With your students discuss these events. Assess prior knowledge and the impact or effect the time we live in has on the art we create and therefore the development of a style like American Jazz Dance.
Included in this resource.
This resource provides social, historical and cultural context for the USA from1900 – 1975. The examiners reports refer to the importance of “context where relevant” being a key factor for missing marks in the higher bands.
