Then answer each question.  \nBallet  \nBallet is a type of dance that dates back to the 15th century (in the 1400s) . It is an art form that can be used to express a feeling, tell a story, or interpret a song. Ballet dancers are strong, graceful, and flexible. Ballet dancers may be men and women - ballet is not just for girls!  \nMany movements in ballet are unusual for the human body. Dancers turn their legs out, instead of having their knees and feet straightforward. They also point their feet and may even dance on the tips of their toes (but only when their teachers believe they are ready)! Not only do dancers need to control their bodies well to perform these types of movements, but they need to have a good understanding of music to be able to dance in time with it.  \nDancers must go through a lot of training. Many take classes almost daily if they’d like to be professional ballet dancers. The movements are demanding on their bodies, so they need to practice often to keep up their strength. That also means that dancers need to take very good care of their bodies, though, so their bodies can keep up with the dancing! Dancers need to be well rested and eat healthy meals. They also should drink plenty of water and listen to their bodies by resting if that’s what their bodies need. They should start slowly when learning new steps, so their bodies have time to get used to the steps and not get injured.  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nIn ballet class, most teachers begin by having dancers warm up their muscles at the barre. Dancers do movements such as the plié , tendu , dé gagé , rond de jambe , and grand battement at the barre. Do these words seem unfamiliar to you? That’s probably because they are in French. Many ballet dancers are required to learn what these words mean in English as well as the French terminology.  \nAfter the warm up , dancers come to the center to practice other movements , as well as doing movements across the floor. Some of these movements are leaps and turns. Teachers and choreographers (people who create dance sequences ) put these steps together to match the music and the story. Dancers practice the dances many  \ntimes in class or practice before they appear onstage.  \nStretching is an important part of dance class , as  \nwell , so that dancers can bring their legs up high to  \nmake beautiful lines. Many dancers stretch at both  \nthe beginning and end of class, but are careful to  \nnot overstretch their muscles when their  \nmuscles are not warmed up.  \nBallet looks soft and graceful , but it really is an  \nathletic activity. If you love to move your body and use it to tell stories , ballet  \nmight be a great activity for you to try!  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nQuestions:  \n1.
