Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum:
This program incorporated a variety of learning styles. The children watched a documentary, asked questions, had a hands on opportunity to interact with artifacts, were able to create a mock government as well as make a rendition of a duck decoy. All of these activities allow the students to draw upon their background knowledge when we begin our Social Studies unit.

Suggestions to artists for improvements:
Maybe have a list of the game rules so students can refer to them.
Please include any additional comments you care to make:
Amazing program....LOVE IT!!!
