1 A Level Dance Student Information.
2 Due to the demands of A-level, a lot is expected of you in order for you to maximize your grade Ensure you have 100% commitment to the course if you do not you will struggle next year Ensure you have excellent attendance and punctuality. If you are going to miss a lesson, then let your teacher know in advance and copy up all the work that you miss Get yourself organised right from the start. Make sure all the materials I give you get put into the folders in the correct order Ensure you complete, at the very minimum, 5 hours of private study/homework in Dance each week. This includes homework that your teacher sets you, additional notes to extend understanding, organizing folders, reading over class work, preparing revision notes and flash cards as the unit progresses. It is important to realise that you will have considerably more work to do than Y11. Not all work is set by your teacher. You must take responsibility for your own learning. You will need to do a lot of note taking and background reading in order to prepare yourself for the longer written answers. You will need to attend revision sessions on Saturday mornings and holiday time when they take place Make sure you use all the resources that are available to you including books, online resources and your teachers! Past experience has shown that students who gain an A or B have worked very hard throughout Year 12. Remember no pain, no gain!

4 Component 1: Performance a) Solo performance based on a PRACTIONER. The assessment objective is assessed through the following elements in relation to the PRACTIONER precision and control of physical/technical skills Spatial elements (personal and stage space) Dynamic elements Interpretative/performance skills in order to communicate the dance idea(s), b) Quartet This will probably be a different genre/ style to your solo dance. The dance must allow you to demonstrate the following within the context of a quartet linked to a style/genre: demonstration of physical/technical skills spatial awareness (including sensitivity to other dancers) interpretative/performance skills What are physical and technical skills? Strength, flexibility, cardio vascular endurance, muscular endurance, precision, control, balance, agility, alignment, stylistic qualities. What are spatial elements? Personal and stage space with sensitivity to other dancers. Formation, pathways, levels all in relation to the style/ practitioner. What are interpretive skills? Timing, musicality, rhythmic control, focus, projection, dynamics, emphasis and expression
5 Component 1: Choreography Movement components: ie action (jump, turn, transference of weight, travel, gesture, stillness), spatial and dynamic (speed, energy, continuity) elements Choreographic Devices: motif and motif development, variation, repetition, contrast, highlights, climax, transitions. Choreographic Structures: Binary An AB sectional structure/form. Section B provides the contrast to section A Ternary An ABA structure/form Rondo An ABACADA structure/form. The repetition of 'A' provides the recurring theme whilst the other sections provide the variety and contrast. Theme and variation An A, A1, A2, A3, etc. structure/form. A theme is stated at the outset of the dance and the subsequent sections are all variations of this theme. Narrative A sequential structure/form which allows the story to unfold. Episodic A series of sections. The sections can be self-contained but when put together will illuminate the overarching theme of the choreographed work. Chance - a choreographic process in which movements are chosen at random or randomly structured. Aural setting includes: Tempo - the speed at which a passage of music is or should be played. Rhythm - The systematic arrangement of musical sounds, principally according to duration and periodical emphasis. Mood and atmosphere - The dancers may not be using the musical rhythm or phrasing but the aural setting is helping to evoke the mood and/or atmosphere. Direct correlation - Dance and music work together, sharing the same time signature, tempo Music visualisation - Dance which aims to clarify the music, using the structure and content as its base. The dance follows the rhythmic, melodic and harmonic lines in the music. Mutual coexistence - Dance and music are created independently of each other but may share the same tempo, theme or directive. Narrative - The music and dance express an idea or tell a story. Disassociation - Dance and music are created independently of each other and when performed share only time and space. Call and response - Similar to a conversation the music or dance 'calls', the other 'responds'
