Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum:
Outstanding! Amazing! The Magic of Amore presented a reading based magic show for our seventh and eighth graders. Our students were completely absorbed, entertained and uncharacteristically well behaved at the show! Amore has a wonderful way of getting the students excited, engaged and involved with every trick and then bringing them back to get ready for what comes next. This is a tough age to entertain and he was incredible. Tons of compliments for days from the teachers and students. The kids rushed to the library to take out books on magic. A HUGE success!

Suggestions to artists for improvements:
Do not change a thing!
Please include any additional comments you care to make:
Highly recommend this performer. Came early with a self-contained show. We asked him to incorporate our Read-A-Thon into the show and he did. The kids LOVED him and are still asking when he will be back. We booked Amore again for our PTA family fun night. Many teachers and staff were asking for his contact information for personal and school events. Any program will be a huge success with Amore as the presenter.
