Everyone

Term 2 is all about rhythm. We will be looking at different types of drums from around the world.

Middles

Rooms 5 and 7 chose their own motifs from different cultures around the world. They worked individually in pairs and in small groups to develop a dance in unison. To create their mathematical dance they used reflection, rotation, repetition and translation.
