The more than 70 dance activities included in this handbook give educators the tools to use dance in their classrooms, gyms, and playgrounds. Combining theory with practice, this introduction to dance history and terminology provides a foundation for the lesson plans tailored for physical education, kinaesthetic learning, and arts education contexts. Although complete on their own, each lesson plan can be customised to fit into any curriculum. Appendices on equipment and dance-education networking resources are included, along with a specialised index categorised into age-appropriate dance activities, sample lesson plans, and group dances.
