Observing, reflecting, describing and responding
|
• Observe closely, identify and comment upon
key elements in performances;
• monitor and adjust personal performance against
given criteria, recognising own strengths and development
needs.
|
• Observe closely, describe, analyse and make
evaluative judgements on key aspects of performances;
• evaluate their own, peer and others’
performances, making a contribution to developing criteria;
• take responsibility for improving their own
performance, based on recognition of personal strengths
and development needs;
• demonstrate the ability to apply knowledge
and understanding of what constitutes a good performance
to form judgements and to make constructive critical suggestions,
specific to the activity, about how a performance might
be improved.

Pupils should be given the opportunity to observe, describe,
analyse and evaluate as wide a range of activities as possible,
e.g. peer observation in class, video of a gymnastics
competition, visit to a theatre to watch a professional
dance company.
Pupils should now be involved in devising criteria and should
be encouraged to use criteria to make judgements in different
ways, e.g. use of an observation checklist, giving oral
feedback to teacher or peers.
