For my microteaching lesson, I taught the basic 6 count step for swing dancing. From the feedback I've received and my own reflection on it, I think it went well! My classmates picked up the "rock step, triple step, triple step" fairly quickly, and so we had time to partner it and dance to music. When we switched to the music, we initially tried it full speed, but when no one was following, I changed it to half speed, which really helped students. I think it was a good decision to be flexible with what I had planned and change it to the level of the students.
I really enjoyed teaching the mini lesson and I'm looking forward to getting to teach another!
