Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum:
The children were actively engaged and really understood how puppets work. Children really enjoyed making 2 types of puppets and all the wonderful crafts to glue onto them. Kate supplies each student with a "Puppet Storybook" to describe their puppets.

Suggestions to artists for improvements:
Let the children see inside the puppet booth so they can see how it was done.
Please include any additional comments you care to make:
The students and teachers really enjoyed the program. Kate was also very flexible on the time of the programs for the AM & PM sessions. It was perfect for Pre-K students. The program was developmentally appropriate for all the students.
