My students are full of energy and excitement. It is my duty and pleasure to help channel the raw energy of my students into a creative outlet. In this case I am developing young dancers and choreographers. Even if my students decide not to ever dance again after taking my class, it is my job to share the benefits of dance for their health and overall character.
The transferable skills that can be learned from taking a dance class builds character.
Through dance students learn persistence and how to take constructive criticism. The learn teamwork and how amazing it feels to collaborate and produce your own art. These skills will help my students achieve the goals they set for themselves.
The materials requested are to help facilitate the production of a Hip Hop Music Video promoting school spirit. There are many talented students here at Kramer with the ability to rap, dance and tumble to name a few. With students shifting back to on campus learning with the new mandates due to the pandemic, keeping them engaged has been a challenge.
A great way to build morale and excitement is for us to take the dances we have been learning in class and use them for our very own music video.
This video could be used for years to come at school events such as graduation or homecoming. No matter if we are virtual or in person this expression of school spirit would be an awesome investment in our school culture and art education. I would also give students the opportunity to be a part of the editing process as well as the video production on campus.
