Description: We live in different geographic locations with special celebrations, cultural influences and traditions in history.  This lesson will help students understand the relationships of these features by using the different types of dances that are performed all around the world.  How do people dance in different parts of the world?  Why are dance traditions different?  What kind of dancing do you do?  What characteristics of specific countries determine the type of dances for that region?
