This text helps the reader to get both girls and boys excited about dance, build essential skills and improve educational outcomes - even if the reader has never taught movement exercises before. It introduces more than 100 movement experiences organized around six themes: rules, recipes, props, poetry and prose, objects and images, and integrated arts. The book includes other features to make creative movement clear and simple to teach: a 15-minute warm-up routine to build teacher confidence; a glossary of movement terms, ensuring clear communication when integrating projects; and a handy "finder" chart helping the reader to quickly identify exercises that meet their criteria.
