ACHF Arts Education
All students at Bridgeview School and Focus Beyond engage in dance activities to emphasize self-expression, communication and collaboration. We will track attendance and rate of participation, document each lesson, and identify social skills that align with dance activities, and collect observation of ways learning transfers beyond dance. 2: Learners and educators will engage in dance activities to reinforce students' understanding of the world they feel and see. We will survey classroom teachers and assistants on what they learned about themselves and students through dance, and will record observations of student engagement in and outside of dance class.
