Common mistakes
There may be issues with group dynamics as pupils have to negotiate which movements they will use when working in bigger groups. Not all pupils in the group may be able to perform the movements.
Pupils may have to delegate a leader or be encouraged to listen to each other when working in bigger groups. Pupils may have to consider adapting their sequences when working with bigger groups.
For parents, carers and teachers
- Groups of 5 will work fine if there is an odd number in the class. Some pupils may also take over all the decisions that are made in the group therefore try to ensure that all voices within the group are listened to.
