Own Your Beat Lesson Plan

Students in grades 6–9 will create and perform their own 16-count choreography; 9th graders work solo using personal music, grades 6–8 collaborate in pairs with teacher-provided tracks, fostering rhythm awareness, creativity, and confidence.

Adapting to developmental levels, this lesson builds musicality, teamwork, and self-expression through graded independence and peer collaboration.
