Would you recommend this program to other school districts?
Yes
This program aligned with our science curriculum. It introduced a variety pf animal adaptations. Students loved the real creatures and were able to identify ways they can survive. Students also loved creating their own creature.
Suggestions to artists for improvement:
I would make it more interactive. The students were mostly engaged with live animals.
Please include any additional comments you care to make.
This presentation needed more time than the 415 minutes allotted. There was not enough time to complete the arts and craft activity. We had to do that at a later time.
