Definitely agree with Melanie. Using peer-partners or what I call dance buddies is very successful. All populations gain social skills as well as dance technique. Especially works well with the visually impaired and autistic spectrum students. Most importantly it provides the general educational students an avenue to connect and appreciate all of their peers.

An assessment strategy that i use in my classroom is peer evaluation. Students create a rubric for performance of etudes or combinations.
Students watch each other perform a and give scores to each other based on the student generated rubric. students share feedback with each other and the instructor.

  • Two of the strategies that were discussed I have used in my classroom. The first is grouping practices like peer partnering work very well in a dance technique 1 class where option 1 students are placed. Peer partners help each other with dance technique and social skills. The second is Mnemonic instruction using the letter strategy for example for the definition of dance. (Dance is the Artistic form of Nonverbal Communication Expressed).

  • One way I have used technology to meet the needs of a student with a disability in my classroom is the use of headphones to assist those students with hearing impairments to connect with the music or to mute some of the distracting noises for that student.
