Lesson notes

Learning Objectives

Indicator: B8.2.2.3.9 - Organise an appreciation and appraisal of own and others’ dance and drama artworks that reflect a range of different times, cultures and topical issues.

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

State the difference between appreciation and appraisal when responding to a dance or drama performance.
Use a simple appraisal framework (strengths, weaknesses, suggestions) to give constructive feedback on a peer’s dance or drama piece.
Record observations about a performance using a structured feedback sheet that covers voice, movement, costume, props, and message.
Organise a mini showcase where an audience watches and responds to performances, then use the audience comments to suggest modifications for a future performance.
Combine feedback from at least two different sources (teacher, peers, or invited audience) to reach a conclusion about how to improve a dance or drama piece.
