Dance Today was one of the best days of my BEd program and my EDCP320 class. I was feeling nervous for the dancing portion due to my traumatic experiences in the past.

Evaluation In the overall analysis of the three pieces in terms of piano‚ guitar and orchestra versions‚ I have found that the three songs in various versions are different in some extent. That is to say‚ each piece has its distinguished feature with reference to sound‚ time‚ structure‚ melody‚ tempo‚ and harmony. To be more specific‚ the report will examine each song within its different versions only. Before I start analyzing the pieces‚ I would like to give a brief introduction about

Before deciding to do this assignment‚ other than the clips we watched in class I had never seen the show before. The episode of Dance Moms I watched was actually very entertaining. The episode I watched was in Season 3. In the episode there was a new girl who joined the competition dance team her name was Nicaya. Of course‚ she came along with her mom whose name was Caya. Caya wasn’t at all like the rest of the moms. She didn’t dress anywhere near as proper as the rest of the moms. Shockingly‚ she

Dance differs from sport in that it is not concerned with movement purely as a means of performing but rather with the artistic intent and quality of the movement (Macmillan‚ 2010). The Jive movement originated from the USA in the early 1930’s. It is a very energetic‚ boppy dance that encounters a number of fast tricky steps.
