IB Seniors create a dynamic quality study using only 3 qualities. Which qualities motivate your movement choices? Sustained? Percussive? Swinging? Suspended? Collapsed? Vibratory? @WPS_ARTS @WPSHighSchool @WPS_Lakers @NAEducation #naejuilliard @ndeodance

Beginning dance students learned how everyday gestures can become movement when exploring time & space all while working from home on Campus Connect. In dance, gestures are a rich source of movement material. @WPS_Lakers @WPSHighSchool @WPS_ARTS @NAEducation #NAEJuillard

WPS dance students explored and created with the use of tempo and rhythm virtually and in the classroom this week. How does changing the rhythm alter the feeling of the movement? @WPS_Lakers @WPSHighSchool @WPS_ARTS @NAEducation @NDEOdance #NAEjuilliard

Chor/Perf students worked on "Making A Source Phrase" based on characteristics of themselves exploring the use of dance elements. As choreographers, do our movement choices clearly communicate our intention? @WPSHighSchool @WPS_Lakers @WPS_ARTS @NAEducation #NAEjuillard
