March, 2017 - Zest Dance Workshops

World Book day is one of our favourite days of the school year! It’s a day that a lot of schools take part in, inviting all their students to dress up as their favourite character from a book.

Maths and dance can be closely linked in many ways. Often when you look at a subject a completely different way, a whole new level of learning is achieved.

You can link our dance workshops to Maths from the curriculum which is great for KS1 children especially. We show using our bodies clear representations of simple maths equations. We also get them used to the terminology used in maths classes, so this gets them feeling confident.

Zest teaches a lot of students per week in schools, so we thought it’d be interesting to break it down and look at the figures for a typical day of dance with Zest.
