Now its time to get up and moving. Children use ICT to learn basic steps before giving them a go to the music themselves. Maybe you can even invite a local expert in to really get things moving.

Join the masquerade! African masks often form part of a dramatic performance which incorporates dance and music. Using African music as inspiration children create simple dance steps to show off their masks.

This session brings together all the parts of the rainforest creativity theme. From music created with made instruments, dance and the wearing of headdresses to the displaying and showing of pots. Celebrate everything that has been achieved.

What do children do when they are not in the classroom? At playtimes, evenings and weekends? Discuss sport, games and hobbies. Write instructions for a playtime game or making a craft object to send to their link school friends. Try an African game or craft. Suitable for years 5 and 6.
