Dance Unit Plan

Due to the fact that I will only be teaching the line dance portions
for the upcoming unit, I will only provide a table that highlights the
different dances that I am teaching and the SLOs that the lessons
meet with regards to the certain grades. Dates cannot be determined
yet.
I will be teaching line dance to all grades, so I have decided to do
a table of the dances I am teaching from order in division (I then II then
III). Each division will do the same dances throughout the unit.
The assessment of the dance unit for the division one and two
will be according to a rubric, for the division three classes, the students
will create a routine and present it. That will be a main component of
their assessment.
