Would you recommend this program to other school districts?
Yes
I would highly recommend this program to other districts. This program brings everything students learn about the Eastern Woodlands Indians to life. Students listen to traditional stories, play traditional games and are able to see and touch artifacts from a Haudenosaunee museum.
Suggestions to artists for improvement:
The instructors are engaging, dynamic and interact well with students.
Please include any additional comments you care to make.
Support materials were provided before the performance. Teachers were asked to watch one video with their classes before the performance. Additional videos were provided for teachers to use at their discretion. These videos were directly related to the activities students experienced during the performance.
