3. WHY DANCE SCIENCE? “Meet them where they’re at” STEM education is vital Culturally relevant learning Increase engagement Decrease sitting time Inclusion Move!

4. ACTIVITY ONE: Dizziness

5. 1.Intro 2.Video (CRL) 3.Try it out (Adaptable) With and without spotting With and without control  Drop the Knowledge (vocabulary)  Vestibular fluid Reflection!

6. ACTIVITY TWO: Astronomy SO MANY OPTIONS IN THIS AREA!!!!! 1.Planetary Orbit A.Physically represent planetary motion around the sun B.Can include asteroids, stars, and moons too! 2.Constellations A.Glowing Constellations Purchase glow in the dark dots Have students work in groups to physically represent a constellation Turn off the light and guess! B.Musical Constellations When the music stops, make your body into the shape of the constellation pictured on the chair 3.Life Cycle of a Star A.Physically represent the birth and supernova of a star 4.Astro Dance A.Make a brief dance based on images of the solar system*

7. ACTIVITY THREE: Physics and Forces

8. 1.The force of gravity (Adaptable) Arms (down, 2 nd, and 5 th positions) Standing with eyes open v closed (vestibular fluid!) Counter Balancing 2.Dance Photos Locating forces on dancers (CRL) 3.Potential Energy=mass x gravity x height Gravity=9.8 meters per second 1 pound=.45 kilograms 60 inches=1.5 meters
