Course Title: Dance

Course Level: BGE

During the S3 elective dance course pupils will have the opportunity to complete three different aspects; practical solo performance, choreography and theory. During their practical solo development pupils will learn various solos from two contrasting styles, contemporary and jazz. In their choreography unit pupils will be able to complete a mini version of what is expected at National 5 level, designing a choreography first as part of a group and then as an individual. Pupils will choose their theme, storyline, costumes, lighting and more to create a 1:30-2 minute piece of choreography. Finally, pupils will complete various theory tasks looking at the history of jazz dance, technical and performance skills which will prepare them for what is to come at National 5.
