| Author: | Salend, S. J. |
| Source: | Creating Inclusive Classrooms: Effective and Reflective |
| Publish Date: | November 28th, 2007 |
| Summary: | This chapter talks about the diversity in schools and the challenges that they face and ways teachers can help ease them. One suggestion is for those who may have more difficulty expressing themselves in the classroom through straight academics, giving them opportunities to express their culture and experiences is really powerful. The way to do this are dance, narratives, and media in there native languages. This relates to all teaching. In every classroom there is at least one who feels different, one who has trouble, and one who doesn’t understand. So a source that gives some creative ways to help them advance their self esteem and learning is a good source.

| Source: | Journal of Physical Education |
| Publish Date: | May 1st, 2007 |
| Summary: | This is a May 1995 article.
This article focused on how the Vancouver School District in Washington implemented a K-12 dance education program. It was all about how to inform parents and teachers about dance and the importance of including it in the classroom. The dance techniques and skills were taught by a person specifically hired for the task. She not only taught the students dance but also collaborated with teachers on how to include it in their curriculum. Then to show parents and teachers how dance improves student's abilities in and out of the room, they would perform what they learned and created. Overall parents and teachers were impressed with what the students demonstrated but it took a lot of time, work, and effort on the part of everyone to make sure there was a high level of involvement. |

| Teaching Creative Dance: An Afrocentric Perspective |
| Author: | C. Vandarakis-Fenning |
| Source: | JOPERD - The Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance |
| Publish Date: | May 15th, 1998 |
| Summary: | This is a May-June, 1994, article. Based upon principles of movement for teaching creative dance to children, the author has developed a model incorporating the aesthetic principles of African Dance to be used in the upper elementary classroom. Using large group activities as well as small groups, the model focuses on rhythms and movement, discovery of movement, and learning through oral traditions. The concentration on Afrocentricity becomes a meaningful connection to the African-American student but the principles can also be applied to each child's cultural perspective. |
