and-space 2017) what comes out in their actions
(movement). The idea of
getting students to connect all
of the senses to learning would
create a balance in their

surprised me. Using this type of
strategy will give students the
opportunity to remember how to
tell time when they visualize the
actions the clock hands make.

represents a traditional dance. My quotes are some of the A-ha moment that I had with the I
knew that. Why didnt I think of that before. And the question is one that has baffled me since
I was young, why isnt dance taught more when it accomplishes everything that we are told
makes a cultured person? And this module has me thinking it still.
