Level 3 Dance
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Ms S. Allpress
LEARNING ACTIVITIES: Students will extend their ability to choreograph and perform original and set dance works. They will work both individually and collaboratively on solo, duet and group dances.
A specific dance work will be analysed and examined in the external exam.
There will be opportunity for students to gain extra dance credits through involvement as dancers and or choreographers in the school production and the Lynfield Cultural Festival. Where possible and appropriate, learning from different achievement standards will be integrated into a single learning context.
Development of physical skill and performance ability is relevant to situations that require presentation skills. Self-discipline, focus, creativity, confidence, communication, plus good group and collaborative skills are personal attributes highly valued by employers and tertiary study providers.
Recommended Prior Learning
Previous experience and learning from 2DAN NCEA Level 2 is recommended but not essential depending on your other previous experience in dance. For example training in a specific dance style in a studio context would be considered useful prior learning.
Experience dancing in the school production or cultural dance would also be an advantage. Prior training in any dance genre will be an added advantage. An excellent track record of attendance is essential due to the collaborative nature of much of the work undertaken. If unsure of your experience level, please see HOD Drama and Dance, Ms. Allpress
