Additional Feedback

Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum:

Students loved the hands on learning through playing games, making clay pots, crushing corn and touching all of the items laid out in the museum. It was a great culminating activity to learning about Native Americans.

Suggestions to artists for improvements:

This program was used in the past. Teachers missed the longhouse experience and the wampum art activity. Adding that in ad an option would be amazing! We understand since Covid the program has had to make some changes.

Additional comments:

We will be scheduling this for our 4th graders next year. The students were engaged and enjoyed working out of the classrooms for these workshops. Learning the songs at the end altogether was an awesome experience and they walked away with a united feeling! 10/10 for this amazing program!
