My Students

I'm a dance teacher in a Title I school in Upper Manhattan, NYC. The neighborhood school serves primarily minority, low income families who really depend on school generated resources to fund all special events and projects. We have a strong focus on performing and visual arts with all of the children participating in Dance, Music, and Art classes. We are well known for our excellent performance productions which are presented three times during the year. Each performance has a new and different theme and the original material presented is always fresh and unique.

My Project

My students are preparing for yet another schoolwide dance and music concert to take place in the Spring 2019. Our theme for this show is "Back to the 80"s", featuring popular music from the 1980s.

A first grade class will be dancing to the song "Ghostbusters", the theme song from the movie of the same name.

Our goal is to dance and LOOK the part with "Ghostbusters" outfits for all 28 students.

Through this project, students will learn about collaboration, artistry, spacing, timing and remaining focused and on task for an extended period of time. It will also be a great confidence booster for our children as well as giving them a sense of pride in themselves and in one another as a class.
