Unit Summary:
In this unit, students will learn to dance in a choreographer's shoes! Taking it step by step in and through a choreographer's world. This unit will allow students to
collaborate ideas creatively. It focuses on the developmental process of choreographing a dance piece with others by letting images, pieces of art, and music lead the way for
inspiration. Students will express how they feel and what they have learned from the experience by writing weekly in a class blog. The complete dance piece will be
