Bollywood Inspiration
This unit lets students explore Bollywood song and dance. Students will get to recreate aspects of traditional Indian dance and experiment with gestural movement, vocabulary and established choreographic conventions. In their research and performances, students will identify and present both traditional and contemporary aspects of the Bollywood genre. They will experience first-hand examples of global cultural fusion.

Assessment
Assessment should be ongoing throughout this unit of work. Teachers should monitor student engagement with each task and the level of cooperation and collaboration during group activities. Criteria can be developed according to specific State and Territory curriculum goals focusing on choreography, performance and appreciation. The assessment approach and sample outlined in Resource Sheet 1 of the Unit 'Seeing and Sharing' provides a starting point for assessment.
