South Africa - 4 Dance Lessons for ks2

4 creative dance lesson plans covering the history and geography of ‘South Africa’.

These focus on

The life of Nelson Mandela
Apartheid
Diamonds (covering the Anglo-Boer War)
The African continent (& it’s geographic features).

Each plan enables the teacher to deliver the lesson simply by asking questions & setting creative tasks for the students - this encourages imaginative responses, high levels of engagement, opportunities for students to work together, share ideas, analyse and evaluate.

The lessons are written in a clear formula & include hints & tips along the way as well as the key skill of each section being identified in the right hand column.

This method of working is very inclusive of children with different physical abilities and levels of experience - it also includes an i-Tunes link for suitable music - the tracks suggested would also be available on other platforms such as Spotify or YouTube.
