Anna, Class teacher: Fits well with my Ancient Greece topic.Lisa Flude, Teacher: It was just what I was looking for.Cathy Clack, KS1 Teacher Inclusion Manager: They are lovely ideas set to fantastic music.Miss T, PE tecaher: we love it!!Stephen Banner, Class Teacher/ PE Lead in school: Imoves has proved to be a fantastic resource for our school. The staff and our children now have access to hundreds of video clips that cater for physical and mental wellbeing of children all at the click of a button. The home learning resource page has allowed our children to access imoves at home during lockdown. A feature that has been used regularly by many of our children.Katie Peasnall, Teaching Assistant: Great fun activities for kids of all ages to do & learn. My class particularly enjoy learning a new dance and pretending they’re riding a mountain bike. Definitely recommended.
Most teachers download the resources, so need to have basic computer/internet literacy. They will need to be able to place the order, open the download, unzip the lesson files and store the music files for use within their lessons. Music may be streamed using links within the plan but many teachers ill transfer files to their own devices. Others will order CDs. To use a licence, they will need to provide a log-in and password, which is then usable throughout their staff. The lessons themselves are designed to be delivered by any teacher, with no need for specialist dance or PE training. We do, however, also offer CPD where required.
Set up is easy, imoves only requires an internet enabled device. Each teacher can have their own account so they can use the lesson planner, and PE and well-being assessment tools. The school 'superuser' can invite school colleagues by clicking on 'menu'; and then 'school management'.
The Dance Notes schemes are designed to be pupil-led. This means that any teacher should be able to lead a class, with no specialist knowledge or instruction (beyond standard teacher training). A series of 6 videos is, however, available at the web site. These talk teachers through the progression of a typical Dance Notes plan and show pupils at work. Each is between 1:30 - 3:00 minutes in duration. In addition, each lesson plan includes a folder with supplementary teaching notes, to aid delivery of the lesson. These are also available individually, online, to licence holders. For teachers and schools that require more detailed help with their dance delivery and/or planning, we also offer CPD. This may take the form of an INSET day; twilight-sessions; or a whole term's delivery by a Dance Notes-approved teacher, working alongside school staff.
For online download orders, the download link is sent immediately on purchase. The lesson download will take seconds and the music may take a few minutes, depending on the number of tracks in the lesson. Invoice orders are processed manually, so take a little longer. Printed materials are normally posted the next working day but may take up to a week, depending on demand.
Matter of minutes, just log in and you'll be ready to go.
