Learners can use the samba drumming videos and the dance sequence videos as contexts for the suggested learning opportunities.

With a focus on expressive arts, learners will use the drumming sequences, dance sequences and mask-making as a stimulus to explore and develop ideas about this aspect of cultural life in Gabon. The learners will research, explore, work collaboratively and experience performance.

These learning experiences offer opportunities for links with all areas of expressive arts, as well as links with health and wellbeing.
