Module 2 Reader 4 initial thoughts

Having just read over the Module 2 Handbook and Reader 4 I am looking forward to exploring a topic that will benefit my Professional work. I have known from the start of this course that I want to focus in on Early Years Dance and Creative work as this is where I currently have experience in but want to really improve on. 

Has anyone else on Module 2 decided what they want to focus on yet for their inquiry? I am interested to hear the different subjects we all want to explore. 

I jotted down some questions that I would be interested in researching. Just a quick brainstorm to get me started. They are:

~The benefits of creativity play and dance in a child's physical and social development? 

~What is the perfect class plan for a pre school child to improve movement and physical development as well as social development.  

~The benefits of using imagery/photos and pictures in a dance and movement class for children.

In the last module I focused in on younger years dance and creative play so this is something I would now like to expand on. This week I plan to do some reading on this subject. 

How is everyone else getting on with the start of Module 2. Would be good to hear some thoughts :)

  2. Hey Sophie,
    One of the areas I am thinking about exploring is how children's behaviour is affected by performing arts. Working within a school I thought this would give me a great insight to this! ill keep an eye on your blog as it seems we are following similar paths :)

  3. Hey Sophie!
    I am also looking into how the arts in education effects children's learning in a school environment as I am a teaching assistant with early years children since September I have been interested in how children learn in different ways. Its really nice to know that there are other people on a similar path to me. It was great reading your blog! :)
