Welcome to Clapton Park. Come and find out what we do in our centre!
Write Dance supports children to develop the physical skills needed for handwriting such as coordination and balance. This is encouraged through movement opportunities supported by music allowing the children to enjoy and build their confidence in mark making. Each week the children engage in a group session led by a practitioner. The children are provided with a piece of paper and a pencil to mark make whilst music is played. During this time the children are encouraged to mark make without using their voices. This allows them to maintain focus on what they are creating and listening to the music. After the session, the children are encouraged to share with the group their experience and what they have produced. Write Dance promotes self-expression, self-regulation and opens the communication within a safe space for our children.
