This week Year 7 classes at St Andrews International School Bangkok explored the Juilliard Creative Classroom lesson of Connected Duets as a part of their elements of composition schemes of work.

The students first explored shaping in different levels and mirrored or shadowed each other’s shape then each duet performed their moving shapes routine in front of the class. They were then asked to perform it again but this time they needed to be connected to each other in every part of their routine. Our students found so many creative ways to stay as a connected duet.
