Constructivism


Ballroom
Engage:  show videos of ballroom dances from "So You Think You Can Dance" to the students to get them excited about learning ballroom.
Explore: Teach the basic steps of different ballroom styles to my students to give them a taste of what each one is like.
Explain: I will have the students watch each other and help each other by making corrections and explaining the steps to each other.
Elaborate: Students will choose which style was their favorite and find out more about that style and learn more steps to make a short dance in that style.
Evaluate: Students will evaluate how well they thought they were able to grasp the idea of their ballroom style and talk about whether they would be interested in learning more or not.
