We Like to Move It, Move It!

​Did you notice that Grade 2 have their PA Showcase this Friday?  They are so excited to share their original movement-based "brain breaks" with our community!  But that's not all...

Grades 2 - 5 have been exploring the Performing Arts through DANCE in this first unit of the year!  Each grade level has been connecting to their inquiry or stand-alone unit through a variety of activities engaging age-specific Dance standards. The Elements of Dance are a vehicle we use to help us create, perform, respond, and connect to movement in new ways each year.  But what ARE the Elements of Dance, you say?  Just have a look at this list, and the photos of our work in process below, and you'll see how much learning is going on!

We MOVE our bodies, and we're also ON THE MOVE... to London!

DP Theatre 1 & 2 will be attending an ISTA TaPs workshop in London this week. ISTA stands for International School Theatre Association and they produce workshops all over the world for IB theatre students. TaPs workshops specifically focus on the DP Theatre curriculum. We are very excited about this trip, and look forward to sharing our experience with AISL when we return!
