This workshop will present 3 scalable dance science activities that are geared towards sparking initial student interest in science. The first activity will target K-2 students. The second will target 3-5th grade students. The third will target middle school girls. Topics will include: Dizziness, Astronomy, and Physics. While the workshop will focus on securing initial interest and buy in from students, options will be presented for scaffolding towards deeper learning.
Adaptations will also be provided where necessary for students with physical disabilities.
The workshop will open with a brief presentation on the science of sedentary behavior, highlighting the importance of movement in every classroom.
