P3 - B1

Posture and freedom of movement

  • Maintain a relaxed and balanced posture whilst using simple gesture where appropriate

Draw learners’ attention to the need to ensure that all gesture should be appropriate to the style of the song, and in the context of the words, e.g. an African song might have movement and gesture on the beat.

Introduce a gospel song and show learners how to practise moving their feet to feel the pulse.

Ensure that the quality of the singing does not deteriorate when gesture/movement is added.
