Describe the way(s) this program impacts your students learning and how this arts experience correlates with your curriculum:
The show was a good way to learn everyday math in a fun way

Suggestions to artists for improvements:
I found the presenter to be a bit condescending to the children. Its hard to be on stage and in front of people and to be thinking on you feet. Nerves can get in the way of solving a Math problem. If the subject turns out to be difficult the presenter should know to change the number to solve the problem or explain clearly again the game. Also he did finish the tic tac toe game in which were disappointed
Please include any additional comments you care to make:
I thought the program had really good intentions. However I didn't feel the the Price was right! There is another game show that we use at much less of the price.
