Follow along with the video Lesson: So today we are going to listen to different songs and I just want you to move to the beat of the song and what emotion the song is trying to convey. 

Don’t worry about what your friends are doing, just focus on your emotions and how you feel throughout the different songs.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” LyricsTwinkle, twinkle, little star,How I wonder what you are.

Up above the world so high,Like a diamond in the sky. 

When the blazing sun is gone,When he nothing shines upon,Then you show your little light,Twinkle, twinkle, all the night. 

Then the traveler in the dark,Thanks you for your tiny spark, He could not see which way to go,If you did not twinkle so. 

In the dark blue sky you keep,And often through my curtains peep,For you never shut your eye,‘Till the sun is in the sky. 

As your bright and tiny spark,Lights the traveler in the dark.

 Though I know not what you are,Twinkle, twinkle, little star.Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

 How I wonder what you are.Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. 

Twinkle, twinkle, little star.How I wonder what you are. How I wonder what you are.

 Cool down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUXEeAXywCY-What story did you take away from this nursery rhyme? -What did you take away from this lesson?

 

STUDENTS' FEEDBACK

Catiana Romain

 Today in Cici's 1st grade dance class we were able to go across the floor and show some moves. It allowed us to explore the movement that we were comfortable with. I thoughly enjoyed this animated class. In Ashley's middle school tap class, we has an amazing ankle warmup up that I have only done in ballet class which was refreshing to to do. Her instructions were very clear and I didn't feel rushed to get things done.  I loved how they both incorporated across the floor it was well done and a great way to use the room.

  1       A Very Inspiring Method of Dancing   Jake Guenoun   When I first joined the Methodology of Teaching Dance class, I really did not know what to expect. I was very nervous because I had never danced in front of people before and I never really learned how to express myself through dance, because I always believed that there were certain or specific ways that it needed to be done. After 4 months, I can confidently say that I now understand the methods of teaching dance and how to give a proper lesson to any group of people. Taking this class not only taught me a lesson, but it also taught me how to teach a lesson.   What I enjoyed learning the most about in this class was creative dancing. I believe that creative dancing is the most effective method of teaching dance because it allows students to express themselves in any way that they please. According to The University of British Columbia, “Creative Dance is a form of...

A Mini-History of Dance: Teaching Creatively for Asychronous Students

  John Dewey: America's philosopher of democracy and his importance to education   John Dewey on Music Education   In Dewey’s model, art isn’t a thing, it’s an experience (though a thing might be the catalyst for the experience.) The work of art isn’t so much the painting or string quartet as it is the experience of the painting or string quartet. That experience depends completely on the social context both of the work’s creation and of its audience. We shouldn’t ask, “what is art?” but rather “when is art?” Dewey saw art not as something existing separately from everyday life, but as existing on a continuum with mundane pleasures. The Stanford Encyclopedia: Dewey then argues that we must begin with the aesthetic “in the raw” in order to understand the aesthetic “refined.” To do this we must turn to the events and scenes that interest the man-in-the-street such as the sounds and sights of rushing fire-engines, the grace of a baseball player, and the satisf...
