Teacher's Notes - Autumn 2009

Let's Move is the foundation of School Radio's dance resources. It uses carefully chosen music - often specially composed for the series - to encourage children to respond to sound and explore their thoughts and feelings. In the Autumn term there are units linking to Noah, Fireworks, Pirates and the folk-tale the Musicians of Bremen.

Curriculum links
The PE Curriculum at Key Stage 1 requires a range of dance activities and specifies that children should have opportunities to:
a) use movement imaginatively, responding to stimuli, including music, and performing basic skills [for example, travelling, being still, making a shape, jumping, turning and gesturing]
b) change the rhythm, speed, level and direction of their movements
c) create and perform dances using simple movement patterns, including those from different times and cultures
d) express and communicate ideas and feelings
Let's Move is an ideal resource for providing all these dance opportunities.
Also links to Curriculum for Excellence (Scotland) Expressive Arts: Dance.
