What this activity helps teachers do
Keep pupils active in the music
Watch, copy, move in time, maintain a steady pulse, repeat patterns and coordinate their actions with the group.
Use a clear teaching route
Establish the pulse before adding movement, model the first pattern without the video if needed, keep actions within a safe space and repeat an earlier level when timing becomes insecure.
