Performance Aims | Expressive movement Improvisation Group interaction through choral dialogue |
Tips for using this Activity Plan. Notes about timing:
- With any improvisation activities, it is hard to be exact about timing as the children may get very involved and want to continue for longer, or may not respond as you expected. However as a rough guideline, you could spend approximately 15 minutes on each activity. With very young learners it is better to do a little and often.
- When rehearsing for a performance, spend at least one lesson making sure everyone knows where to move and when.
- For Trinity Stage Two, performances should last from 10-20 minutes.
