This year I am delivering Stage 3 Creative Dance while other Teachers on my stage teach Music, Drama, and Computer Art.
The NSW Department of Education has created this Dance Resource Page for Stage 3, it includes suggested programming, scope and sequences and units of work.
Stage 3 Curriculum Support for Dance is here, and there is a page dedicated to Units of Work.
This term I will be delivering the 'Dance Solutions' Unit of Work.

In this lesson there is a focus on Busby Berkeley's Dance Formations.
Extension - Examine the form of an icosahedron.
Rudolf Van Laban experimented with movement using all the possible directions indicated by the planes of this form. Create a short gestural sequence that explores these directions.
