ACTIVITY 7: Rhythmic Activities
WHAT I LIKE MOST ABOUT …
For me, the one I like the most
in this lesson is about knowing
the dos and don’ts in
performing folk dances. We
should be in a natural, simple,
& direct manner and we should
not exaggerate the dance step.
Dance should be smooth. We
should wear the proper
costume and follow the dance
instruction with feeling and
expression. Always remember
that dance steps should not be
complicated and don’t make
the entrance and exit too long.
I LIKE TO READ & LEARN MORE
ABOUT …
I like to read and learn more
about the basic folk dance steps.
The 2/4-time dance steps, the ¾
time dance steps, and lastly the
4/4-time dance steps. I want to
learn more about this because
many people enjoy learning
basic steps in folk dance to
participate in either a social or
religious tradition, or sometimes
just to get some exercise. Folk
dancing is a fun form of
movement that involves dancers
of all ages and backgrounds.
I NEED MORE ON …
I need more to practice our
Philippine folk dances
because it is a way of
preserving our culture and a
way of passing the tradition
from one generation to
another. Being able to learn
how a folk dance is danced
the way it must be is an
obvious indication that
culture still lives on.
