Read: chapters one and two of text - Appreciating Dance, 5th ed. by Harriet Lihs.
Write a summery response to the videos shown in class: 1) Ethnic Dances from around the World; 2) Native American Dance;3) Hula; 4) Ritual Dances of the South Pacific. Give your reaction to the experience, focusing on the Patterns and Surprises that you find.
Patterns - Things that you recognize, that seem to repeat from one cultural group to another.
Surprises - Things that seem odd to you, or that you are surprised to learn.
What you notice, is what is important to make note of.
