Скачать или смотреть Artistic Empowerment- How dance can express activism

MYP 2 students explored the role the arts can play in activism. Students began by studying real world examples of dance activism. They critiqued performances and learned how dance can empower people to express the ideas they care about. As a whole class they worked with their English and Individuals and Societies teachers to write a speech about something they cared about as a group. Individual speeches were combined into a single speech that incorporated at least one line from each student's work. Students then translated that speech into dance through original choreography. Students engaged in every part of the creative process to create an original work of art that showcases their critical and creative thinking skills as well as social skills.
