This paper studies the history of dance education in Manipur and social value, psychomotor domain, and creative development of students at the school curriculum in Manipur (India). Dance education plays an essential role in molding a person into a perfect human being with good health and behaviour in society. It also furnishes the essential elements humans need to live in our society other than imparting knowledge and skills. In overall development, Manipuri dance plays the most crucial role in the school curriculum. The descriptive research method used in this study revealed the importance and the role of dance education for the four upper primary school students, i.e., class VI to class VIII of Imphal West District and Imphal East District, where dance class had been adopted as one of the subjects in these schools. The 915 students have been taken from the following four schools: Kendriya Vidyalaya-Lamphelpat, Tolchou Ibeton Memorial Academy-Hiyangthang, Rajkumari Sanatombi Devi Vidyalaya-Haotal Pangei, and SL Arena of Learning-Khurai Khaidem Leikai. The researcher collected 70% of students’ respondents, of which 287 are males and 343 are females out of 630 students. Finally, the investigator has found that the social value of students is significantly improving due to dance education. Dance education helped in realizing one’s own potential for self-enhancement, confidence, problem-solving, and creativity among the students. Moreover, it also developed and enhanced the psychomotor domain and the students’ creativity to a certain extent. Thus, dance education should be made compulsory as a curriculum subject at all levels of schools.

The Impact

The article proves the possibility of forming the ability to understand music by primary school students. The influence of program works of the school program on the perception and understanding of music of different genres is proved by concrete examples. The educational influence of works of musical art on the formation of the artistic and emotional sphere of personality is proved. The formation of the ability to understand works of music by primary school students occurs in a certain sequence based on teacher-student interaction, both in music lessons and during extracurricular work on artistic and aesthetic education of primary school children. The collective type of creativity, inherent in the assimilation of the values of musical art, obliges the subjects of the educational process to comply with certain requirements for the organization of joint activities. In accordance with modern music-pedagogical technologies, which enable the effectiveness of the learning process, there are certain requirements for the perception of works of music of different genres and compositional styles provided by the school curriculum. Thus, the quality of the impact of music on primary school students depends on certain factors. Because, according to the school curriculum, music lessons are united by a common theme, which makes it possible to organize work with children in such a way as to give first-graders the opportunity to talk about their favorite music. To do this, prepare and ask the class a few questions, such as: remember what songs you sang or heard from radio and television programs that focused your attention and you liked ?; what song do you dream to sing ?; what dance music do you like Such a conversation should take place in a friendly atmosphere, and children's responses should be supported and evaluated positively. The teacher's tolerant attitude to any thoughts, feelings and expressions of students gives the child confidence in their own abilities, determination and activity in further work.

School Day

Since children spend a large proportion of their time in institutional settings such as schools, health promotion researchers have identified this as an important setting to promote physical activity (PA). Apart from physical education, PA could be integrated into the school curriculum in other ways. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine whether a school excursion to a museum can increase primary school students’ PA and reduce sedentary time. One hundred and ten primary school students aged 12–13, from three Danish schools, wore accelerometers for four consecutive days, of which one consisted of an excursion day to a museum. While an increase in light physical activity and reduction in the amount of sedentary time was observed, students did not spend more time in moderate to vigorous PA (MVPA) during the visit to the museum than on a regular school day. However, over the full excursion day, the students accumulated more MVPA. One school used active transportation to and from the museum, which contributed to significantly more MVPA compared to the other schools. An excursion to a museum significantly reduced sedentary time, but was in itself not sufficient to increase MVPA.
