Presentation Reflection

  Interview 1 & Presentation 1

1.The first interview affected my presentation in a major way because that was one of the main things I talked about. I started off saying how the answer to my service learning question was really what triggered me to start my service learning at a studio with a ballet class.
2.I think what stood out about my presentation and performance was my information and that I talked about my project and how I will apply this information later on in the project.
3. The most challenging thing to do was manage the information that I was going to say because it was a short amount of time. Also we wouldn't be able to use it in our two hour presentation so I had to be clear and have a short but concise 5minute presentation.

Interview Check

• For my first interview I will be interviewing Mrs. Jennifer Kennedy. She is the Don Lugo High School's dance instructor for about 35 years. I'm interviewing her because some of my friends from that school love her as a person and teacher and they recommended her. I also know that she has successfully guided the high schools dance team into winning competitions so I'm looking forward to learning some of her knowledge.    

• Some additional questions that I would want to ask Mrs. Kennedy would be:

  • How important is technique and aesthetics as a dancer?

  • What is something that you have learned through out the years about dancers?

Senior Topic

• My senior project topic is Dancers and more specifically dancers technique and aesthetic. 

• I choose this topic because I personally enjoy dancing a variety of styles. Each and everyone is different but you use many of the same qualities while performing. I'm currently a member of  iPoly's dance team and one thing that I like about it is that we don't only focus on one style. Dance has always been a fun way for me to stay active and healthy and that is why I love it so much.

• After studying my topic all  year I hope to become a better dancer myself. I would like to physically be able to do more stunts, clean up my moves, and have immaculate performances. I would also like to acquire more confidence and be able to have fun as well. Not only that but after i find out more about my topic I hope I'm able to help others who are trying to become or succeed as dancers.
