PERFORMING ARTS WEEK 7: Bounce, Dribble, Perform! 🏀🎵
The Year 3 and 4 students have had an exciting and energetic start to Performing Arts this semester through our Basketball Rhythms unit! Students have been exploring beat, rhythm and tempo by combining music with coordinated basketball dribbling routines. Beginning with simple clapping patterns, students learnt how to transfer rhythms from body percussion to basketballs, developing their timing, coordination and concentration skills along the way.
As students built confidence, they worked on increasingly challenging rhythm sequences and routines performed to popular music. Through these activities, students strengthened their understanding of steady beat and rhythmic patterns while also developing teamwork, resilience and performance confidence. It has been wonderful to see students encouraging one another, showing persistence and proudly performing their routines with enthusiasm and creativity.
