Target: Multicultural Dance

[LINDA SLACUM <lslacum@CCPS.ORG>]

Colleagues,
My PE department is looking to add a research component to their =
multicultural dance unit.  Currently, they divide students into smaller =
groups and rotate them through activities on various folk dances of =
countries of the world.  (They do not want to dwell upon music of the =
countries as the music department covers this topic extensively.)

I have limited print resources on "games" people play in various =
countries.  I've searched online with limited success for other =
multicultural dance ideas.  I did stumble upon bandaloop dance (dancing =
on the side of cliffs).  It is new and very exciting and is the kind of =
topic I would like have students investigate.  Several other topics of =
high interest would be good to have on hand for students to select from.

Any suggestions you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
