As Frankie said, I'll "start spreadin' the news" that dance us a fun and authentic way to teach math, especially for people who think they're not good at math, or dance, or both!

No surprised but always delighted to see bow proud and happy people are who are engaged and take ownership of an activity. We may not have to worry about giving up our day jobs to take our AB pattern dances on the road, but we all felt a sense of accomplishment at what we created. I want that for all my students too!

Low confidence in arts is usually a barrier for students AND teachers :D staying in a small box and focusing on specific aspects and "just 4 moves" makes dance accessible for anyone who can take a step and count to 4!

I always knew there was math in the arts especially music and dance (hello! Patterning!) but I didn't appreciate how much MORE math vocabulary and the variety of math concepts were also embedded in the arts!

An appreciation for the fact I don't need to be a dance expert, the kids will create their own complexity.
