Name Dance Choreography
Students will be required to write their name in the air. If students have a long name
they may shorten it or use a nickname. Once students have done this, the teacher
will instruct students to try using a different body part to write their name. Then try to
use a different body part for each letter; students may get ideas from warm up two.
The teacher will then pair up students by using a simple pairing process. Students
are to teach each other their names. Students will join each other’s name to form the
choreography to make a small dance. Students will be instructed to have at least
each letter on different levels, speed or movement, highlighting the energy, using the
body and emotions. Students may use the ribbons provided for their dance.
