Samenvatting:

This work aims to engage children in composing and controlling their movements by varying shape, size, direction, level, speed, tension, and continuity. A number of dance forms from different times and places are covered, including some traditional dances of the British Isles. It also aims to show children how to express feelings, moods, ideas, responding to music, and creating simple characters and narratives in response to a range of stimuli through dance. It includes detailed lesson plans for years 3-7, and is up to date with the national curriculum. It also outlines both what to teach and how to teach it well.
