In the toolbox, you’ll find some exciting new blocks that you can use to make your dance party even more fun. For example, there’s a layout block that lets you arrange your dancers in different ways on the screen. You can try out these new blocks and see what amazing dances you can come up with.
Will you make a dance that matches perfectly with your favorite song? Or maybe you want to have a dance-off with your friends to see who has the best moves? The choice is yours! You can even come up with something completely new and different.
Once you’re done, you can share a link to your dance party with your friends so they can see what you’ve created. Use your imagination, have fun, and let your creativity shine!
Remember, the most important thing is to enjoy yourself and explore all the cool things you can do with computer science. Happy dancing!
Create Your Own Dance Routine: At home, pick your favorite song and create a dance routine using some of the moves you learned from the video. Try to include at least three different dance moves. You can perform it for your family or friends and even teach them the routine. Think about how you can use space and timing to make your dance more exciting.
Dance Party Observation: Next time you watch a dance video or see people dancing, pay attention to how they use different formations and movements. Can you spot any patterns or sequences? Try to recreate one of the formations with your toys or draw it on paper. Discuss with a friend or family member how these formations make the dance more interesting.
Design a Dance Floor: Use colored paper, markers, or crayons to design your own dance floor layout. Think about where you would place the dancers and how they might move around the space. Share your design with a classmate or family member and explain why you chose that layout. How does it help the dancers perform better?
