After carrying out the activities and core task in this unit
most pupils will: work in a group to plan and put on a dance show in which they take part; implement and monitor a preparation schedule incorporating technical and body conditioning aspects; perform with technical competence; show sensitivity to the accompaniment and communicate the choreographic intention; employ a range of choreographic devices; structure dances into logical form and select material that has rhythmic, dynamic and spatial interest; apply movement principles underpinning specific dance techniques; critically analyse performance, choreography and aspects of production with some knowledge of social, historical and cultural contexts; develop and improve their dances and performance skills
some pupils will not have made so much progress and will: work as a member of a group to carry out a basic preparation schedule for dancing in a show; perform basic techniques, showing some sensitivity to the accompaniment and other performers; attempt to communicate intention in performance and in composing dances; need help to develop ideas and movement material; demonstrate a basic understanding of how to structure a dance; identify some movement principles underpinning selected dance techniques; need some help and guidance to develop their dances and performance skills
some pupils will have progressed further and will:
take the initiative and lead groups to devise, implement, monitor and adapt preparation schedules for a dance show; demonstrate sophisticated performance skills; show initiative and originality in composing dances; employ advanced choreographic principles; demonstrate a good understanding of choreographic form; apply movement principles underpinning selected dance techniques with great accuracy; show detailed knowledge of the origin and background of their dances; critically analyse dances they perform, create and observe; develop their own and others' dances and performance skills
