Dance: Discovering the Culture of Gullah

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

It's wonderful to see a lesson that incorporates art, movement, and writing. These three forms of creative expression are explored as learners dance to music from the Gullah people of West Africa. They analyze several paintings, listen to music, perform a dance, then write an essay on the experience.
