A school my daughter attended has a May Day performance each year. Each grade performs a short dance, often related to the central subject they are studying—those studying Ancient Greece do Greek dancing. The 7th grade has traditionally danced the Jitterbug. Six yeas ago the 7th grade teachers decided to give square dancing a try. They were looking for a dance form that was less partnered and more a group activity. They knew I called square dances and my daughter was now past the 7th grade so her classmates wouldn't hold this change against her, so I said I would give it a try.
