Learning Resource Packs

Dance4 is passionate about children and young people and the importance of their physical and emotional health and wellbeing.Over the last few years we have developed three resource packs aimed at teachers, practitioners and community group leaders to support teaching and delivery of creative dance practice.

Small Steps Big Moves, Giant Leaps, Early Years Resource Pack
In 2004 we produced Small Steps Big Moves, an early years resource pack giving early years practitioners, teachers, artists and parents the skills and confidence to deliver dance.  We sold over 1000 copies of the resource, regionally and nationally, and delivered many workshops on the subject, which supported those wanting to use the pack.

The ideas in the pack aim to engage the child’s natural curiosity allowing them to explore, express themselves and reflect on their world and experiences.  

Five years on, we have produced five new refresher cards called Giant Leaps for those individuals/organisations who have used the original pack (Small Steps) and would like new ideas for keeping the pack fresh and exciting.

We have received a number of pre-orders and are now pleased to announce that the refreshed resource is now available and on sale.

Take a sneak peak of the pack here.

Cost per pack:

Full Pack - £35 (plus postage and packaging) Small Steps Big Moves and new Giant Leaps inserts
CD  - £10 Additional copies of the CD
 
If you would like training in your setting or to your network please contact Liz Clark and Oksana Tyminska. Liz Clark and Oksana Tyminska co-wrote our early years resource pack based on their work with Dance 4 and 15 years experience of dancing with children, parents and teachers. Both have led training initiatives for Sure Starts, Councils, the National Dance Teachers Association as well as a great number of early years settings. They are available to lead training for your staff based on the ideas in Small Steps Big Moves and Giant Leaps.
