In this lesson, students will watch at an excerpt of Alvin Ailey's Revelations (1960) to reflect on how dance can celebrate a community. The lesson builds literacy, social skills, and historical knowledge. You can do it by itself or as part of a 7-lesson unit, called "Dancing Where We're From," that develops self-awareness and classroom community with fun activities like dance, discussion and written reflection. The resource includes a lesson plan, with links to online resources, and a worksheet
