Shape

Students in Kindergarten through 3rd grade have been exploring an important part of dance, body shapes. We learned that we can use body shapes to make our dancing more interesting and full. Kindergarten used body shapes in our Potato Chip Dance. 1st grade used body shapes in our Color Dance. 2-3rd grade used body shapes to create a dance inspired by Henri Matisse's artwork, "Creole Dancer". See if you can pick out all the different shapes, angular, twisted, curved and straight!
