LESSON: FIND YOUR SPACE<br />
4<br />
LESSON OUTCOMES<br />
Develop an awareness of<br />
how space can be used<br />
To consider how using<br />
space differently will add<br />
texture and interest<br />
To explore different ways<br />
of using contrasting ideas<br />
simultaneously<br />
To develop an awareness<br />
of what is occurring in the<br />
space around you<br />
To introduce the concept<br />
of travelling in the dance<br />
if this has not occurred<br />
yet<br />
CREATIVE CHALLENGE PROGRESS<br />
Start to think about how the performance space can<br />
be used in your final performance. How can your<br />
dancers move together in the space?<br />
When might it be appropriate to use a small space<br />
or a large space? Consider how the use of space<br />
could contribute to character, story and idea<br />
development.<br />
