Jonathan Marshall found Dance Notes:

• Moderately improves attainment“Engagement with the source topics was interesting to the children as they wanted to find out how the topic linked to dance.”
• Significantly builds student knowledge“Key phrases that can be inputted into a lesson that they can remember and show physically.”
• Significantly increases student collaboration“An unfamiliar topic means they must work together to explore and discover new ways of thinking and learning.”
• Moderately improves behaviour or wellbeing“The year 5 children at our school can be very challenging but with the rough and tumble frame of work, the challenging boys were engaged and having a positive impact on the lesson as opposed to a negative one.”
• Significantly reduces teacher workload“As a sports coach I must plan every lesson to suit each year group for each topic, so having lesson plans that are already planned and ready to go, means that I do not need to spend time researching for and creating a frame of work for dance for each year group”
