In stead of having the students complete step 8 of the dance (grapevine), have the students create their own 8 count move they can perform with the lacrosse stick.

Have students complete a self-assessment based on their performance of the dance. Students should rate their performance of each dance step by indicating if they have mastered the step or still need improvement.
