World War 1 Performance Pack - 'Archie Dobson's War'

Dance Resources 1 - Countdown to war

First broadcast: on School RadioLatest broadcast: on School Radio

Available for over a year

The dance activities in this programme begin by contrasting 'town' and 'country' in the summer of 1914. There are also some simple steps to learn from a contemporary dance called 'The Castle Walk' before the declaration of war takes us to the parade ground for some military drill steps.

The activities in the programme can be used to support your on-going work in dance at Key Stage 2. They also support a performance of our play 'Archie Dobson's War', commemorating the outbreak of World War 1. The programme is available to download. Show less
