In PE we have been looking at the skills needed for dance. In our first session, we listened to different sounds from the seaside and talked about what they were. We created different actions for: a beach umbrella opening, waves, digging in the sand, and an ice cream! We counted to 4 whilst doing each of the actions before moving on to the next action, starting to count to 4 from the beginning each time we changed action. We were lucky enough to perform our final noisy postcard to the children in Crew Marsh!
In the next session, we focused on creatures that lived under the sea. We moved around the hall as different sea creatures, listening carefully to the instructions on when to change to another creature. We then created actions for: an octopus, a shark, a stingray, and a seahorse. We practised using the actions and movements as we moved around the hall. Our favourite was definitely the shark!
