KS3 Dance Word Bank (Creating, Performing, Evaluating)

KS3 Dance Word Bank (Creating, Performing, Evaluating)

(1)
Best printed and laminated for use during performances and evaluation lessons. On one side is a basic word bank for students to choose from (to avoid them repeating the same thing that each group did well or need to improve), and on the other are sentence starters and connectives to develop vocabulary and use of full sentences when evaluating performances in class. Once the students get used to using them I found that performance feedback was much quicker and more valuable. I also have a drama one in my shop.

These resources include the written motifs, with tasks to identify actions, space, dynamics and relationships within them. There is also a task where students can write their own.
