Manor Oaks School second graders presented a Chinese ribbon dancing showcase to parents and families on Feb. 9. Over the course of six sessions, students learned the dance steps from a Circle of Dance Repertory Company teacher.
The district partnered with Circle of Dance last school year to provide various dance lessons and to promote arts in education.
Along with the dance lessons, the students worked in the library to learn about ribbon dancing and the Lunar New Year. They listened to a read aloud of “Amy Wu and the Ribbon Dance” by Kat Zhang, and created slides on their Chromebooks to depict what activities they enjoy with their families.
