This is a lesson I intend to deliver to my y11 students ahead of their COMPONENT 3 IDEAS LOG controlled asssessment. The ppt uses tips/bulletpoints from BTEC to allow students to see what is required of them during their controlled assessment of the IDEAS LOG. The ppt includes another CREATION CANVAS ( i will print this A3) that students can use to plot out their notes for the task-this can also be broken down and used for the controlled assessment as their notes. The ppt also has some checking exercises around making detailed points using PIE structure and Paddy MCGuiness themed highlighting peer assessment. The resource also comes with a simple WORD template that students can use to practice structuring a response.

This resource has been used most successfully with our current y8/9 students. It is a SOW at desks so classroom based but with fun activities for students to take part it with some movement at desks in some tasks. The SOW explores the following Lesson 1- Stylistic Features of professional repertoire. Lesson 2- Dance skills Lesson 3- Types of Stimuli Lesson 4- Responding to a brief Lesson 5- Interactive Quiz Lessons can be split as there is a lot of content, lesson 3 and 4 inparticular you could spread across 2 lessons each making a longer SOW The bundle also features a knowledge organiser that students can use for home learning and there is a DO NOW task students can complete in books at the start of each lesson.

Diversity Black Lives Matter Dance for classroom or studio

This resource was created for teaching y8 and 9 dance students in classrooms. The choreography was modified and performed sat at desks but this could be quite easily used in a studio where students can dance more freely.

CREATION CANVAS

CREATION CANVAS

(0)
I created this for my students studying COMPONENT 3 on the BTEC TECH award. It is just a really simple way for them to record ideas as they rehearse etc and then when they complete the skills log they can refer to this when creating their notes. The concept links to BLANK CANVAS-just for fun, so they use all the blank space on the blank canvas to write down their ideas and then at the end of the lesson reflect using the questions in the paint splatters.
