Dance Over the past few years, a number of British Columbia educators have worked with ministry staff to develop a draft curriculum framework for Dance K to 7. This framework includes restructured curriculum organisers, revised learning outcomes and new achievement indicators.

The restructured curriculum organisers, outlined in the below wiki table, organise the learning outcomes and achievement indicators into sections. However, it is intended that when teaching Dance, educators will draw content from across curriculum organisers in order to create their units and lesson plans.

The curriculum organisers for Dance K to 7 are: //Creation and Composition, Elements of Dance, Context,// and //Presentation and Performance.// These curriculum organisers are designed to align with the overall philosophy of Arts Education in British Columbia and represent a similar structure within the curriculum frameworks for all four Arts Education disciplines (Dance, Drama, Music and Visual Arts).

Click on any of the links below to review the draft learning outcomes and achievement indicators for Dance K to 7. Discussion and input is welcome. All content displayed in the below wiki pages is DRAFT only.
