15. How can we use clothes as props to ‘get into character’? How do we build belief? What gestures and expressions should we use when we dance to the silly hat store? We used the Flip Video – this gave us instant feedback Drama and Dance

21. I think this unit worked well because it’s an age appropriate, relevant topic. There were also plenty of resources. ICT use helped us to work faster, create better quality work, get instant feedback, see things close up, access information easily. It helped lots!
