Assessment / Reflection Suggestions

For assessment, notice how the students hear the signal for bowing. Are they able to find someone to bow towards?

Lean into the image to encourage accurate movement for the king/queen, (head held high, stepping with purpose) the knight, (trotting horse knees) and the enchanted forest (fluid, gentle sway movements as a group).
