Dance Class Plans – Grade 3 Tap, Bundle 2 (Months 6–10) by Darryl Retter
Continue your students’ tap education with this five-month extension of the Grade 3 Tap curriculum. Dance Class Plans – Grade 3 Tap, Bundle 2 builds on the concepts and progressions introduced in Bundle 1, following the structure of Al Gilbert’s respected Grade 3 Tap Technique.
Each month offers detailed video demonstrations and teacher notes for every class section—Barre, Center, Across the Floor, and Dance Combination—providing a complete 20-week program designed to keep students challenged and engaged.
Once your dancers complete all ten months from Bundles 1 and 2, they’ll be ready to advance to the next grade level. Ideal for high beginner to low intermediate students ages 9–11, this level strengthens rhythm, sound precision, and stylistic confidence through thoughtful, progressive training.
