Dance Challenge: Calculate and Compare Speed by Measuring a Series of Dance Movements

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Really neat! Kids choreograph a dance phrase and then measure the distance and speed of the phrase using a timer and a meter stick. They collect the data on a table which they use to determine an average. A series of observation and critical-thinking questions makes this an amazing integrated worksheet incorporating the arts.
