Dance Performance Lesson Plan
Dance and human civilization bonded together since the ancient times. With each passing century, dance became a more important tool for maintaining our health, preserving social interactions, and celebrating the events and gods. Many dances were performed as a way to bond and communicate. In the early periods of time, dances were performed as part of large events such as ceremonies and festivals.
Since dance is not a physical artifact that can be examined, historians find it difficult to identify when exactly dance was invented.

Music Concert Lesson Plan
FUN FACTS
A concert is a live music performance in front of an audience. The performance may be by a single musician, sometimes then called a recital, or by a musical ensemble, such as an orchestra, choir, or band, before recorded music, concerts provided the main opportunity to hear musicians play.
Field trips to music concerts bring lessons on famous composers such as Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Chopin, and more to life. Groups will be able to hear and feel the music these composers created long ago while seated in world renowned concert halls.
