<p>Group performance using Drama, Dance and Music</p>

This subject is an introduction to teaching young children from birth to 8 years through The Arts, which is comprised of five (5) subjects: Dance, Drama, Media Arts, Music and Visual Arts. It aims to facilitate the emergence of the artist within pre-service teachers, and nurture self-confidence and positive identity as an expressive artist and teacher. Pre-service teachers develop Arts knowledge, practices and skills, through &#39;Exploring&#39;, &#39;Creating&#39; and &#39;Presenting&#39; in the early years. Pre-service teachers implement techniques, skills and processes to explore creative practice and to make artworks. They will develop confidence and competence for enacting authentic Arts education in early learning centres and schools. Pre-service teachers will engage with the Early Years Learning Framework, the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guideline and the Australian Curriculum: The Arts (Prep-Year 3).
