This resource is for the beginning of the second phase of the Component 3 exam. I wanted to get my students thinking about different methods/techniques they could use to create more material-something that they will need to write about in their SKILLS LOG which will come in a few weeks time. The lesson encourages groups to try 2 out of the 4 suggested techniques for coming up with choreography/creating. This could EASILY be changed to 4 drama techniques/musical theatre techniques or even production techniques if needed . The ppt includes a creation canvas slide that i have printed out A3 for my students to. track their ideas/findings on. The resource also comes with a personal management SKILLS log that i am going to get them to fill out quickly each lesson- this will track their progress/contributions to the process which again they will need to write about in their SKILLS LOG.

This is a template that i gave to students as part of their studies on 5 Soldiers. There is a storyboard complete with 8 key scenes in the production. Students must watch the live feed performance and describe the movement, set, lighting and costume in each scene. This allows them to meet the Component 1 Criteria in exploring the features of the piece and how costume, set, lighting and movement choices contribute to the overall piece. A help sheet is included with an example for each section and some helpful tips.

A ppt to launch the 2020 BTEC TECH Component 3 theme with grade breakdowns, top tips and some practical examples and helpful ideas to get started. The ppt also features a breakdown of overall grades so students can understand the importance of component 3 to their overall grade.

I created this lesson for the early stages of component 3 exam on the BTEC TECH performing arts award.

I created this resource for my BTEC TECH classes studying dance, the lesson requires them to use various stimuli linked to their initial ideas such as a poem or photo and to create basic motifs from them.

This will link to a STORYBOARDING lesson and their COMPONENT 2 write up.

This is the 4th Workshop for 5 soldiers for the BTEC TECH component 1. Students explore the concept of the skydiving section where soldiers jump out of the plane. It encourages students to build up movement material using improvisation and visual stimulus of skydiving formations. This creates excellent groupwork that can then be filmed for evidence.

This resource was created for teaching y8 and 9 dance students in classrooms. The choreography was modified and performed sat at desks but this could be quite easily used in a studio where students can dance more freely.

This is a blank workshop journal page that can be used with the WORKSHOP JOURNAL HOW TO lesson. This could be used for any BTEC dance course

I created this for my students studying COMPONENT 3 on the BTEC TECH award. It is just a really simple way for them to record ideas as they rehearse etc and then when they complete the skills log they can refer to this when creating their notes. The concept links to BLANK CANVAS-just for fun, so they use all the blank space on the blank canvas to write down their ideas and then at the end of the lesson reflect using the questions in the paint splatters.
