Luna's Perfect Imperfect Lesson 5: "Sway & Wiggle to Explore Bomba - ECE Dance & Drums" with Bernadette Lanoue
lunadancecreativity.org/perfect-impe...
Watch a dance educator lead a creative dance class and hear her reflect on the process. Follow along with the accompanying lesson plan.

Practitioner Exchanges are roundtable conversations among peers and welcoming spaces to share inquiries, ideas, and stories. For this session, we get to imagine the school year ahead. Prepping is so much more fun and inspirational when done with colleagues who care as much as you.

RESTARTING & REIMAGINING

What are we imagining for ourselves and our students this new year? What is inspiring and/or challenging us? What would we like to cultivate and/or let go of?
