My scond draft of an Enter Achilles Scheme of Work for GCSE Dance. This is a practice for the duo/group performance unit which also draws upon their analysis and choreographic skills. I am teaching this to my high ability Y9 GCSE Dance group. The scheme explores contact work, physical theatre, lifts, weight-sharing and transitions through creating a dance which has 3 clear links to 'Enter Achilles', but is actually based on peer pressure rather than pressure to be what is considered 'masculine'. It incorporates contemporary, jazz and ballet technique as well as all three elements of performance, choreography & appreciation. The attached PowerPoint is an example of what I might use to present lesson 9. Please comment, suggest ideas for improvement or point out anything I ought to include that I have missed. Thank you!

amazing idea - love it . wow! i think this looks absolutely brilliant, i always study enter achilles (the pub scene) with my GCSE groups as one of the 4 comparable works. i will try some of these practical ideas with the class to help them with their understanding of the ADS and R of the work. also a brilliant way of developing contact ideas and trust. would be great for my good performers who have less technical ability but have great expressive skills and may lead to a collaborative performance piece. <br />thank you, i will try and remember to come back and feedback to you.
