"Our school was privileged today to host "Snapshots" for our grades 3-5. The play was developmentally appropriate, used language that was easily understood by the students, and captured and held the attention of the audience. The play was interactive, allowing the students to be involved in determining examples of both respectful and disrespectful behaviors. The situations portrayed in the performances were similar to those our students face at school and on school grounds, which helped build a connection between the play and real life for our young learners!" -Maggie Mitzel, Principal, Kennedy Elementary, Fargo, ND |
