DALLAS, TX – A Texas teacher got his students up and on their feet with a unique project that has now gone viral!
Theater director Scot Pankey is the hip-shaking teacher dancing to Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk” with his students.
“We are a project-based school — there are only two in the Metroplex — and that means you give the students a project, put them in teams, and they have to come up with solutions. They had three weeks to work on it, then present as a group what they learned,” Pankey told the Dallas Morning News.
The video, which was shot by students, was completed in a single take.
“This is a great example of how a bunch of technology students let go of their fears, trusted their teacher and got down to Uptown Funk!!!” the YouTube description states.
