Student response, artistic quality, presenter interaction with students and even the technical quality of the program were EXCELLENT." Principal, Grantsburg Elementary School 3/13/13 Wyckoff, NJ - "The host of Arithmetickles did an excellent job working with students who weren't exactly on track and steering them in the right direction. He made sure all students on stage were comfortable and eager to answer questions. A great time was had by all: students, teachers and parents. Math is fun!" Math Specialist, Sicomac School. 3/8/13 Staten Island, NY - "This was a wonderful assembly. Our students, all 960 of them, we engaged throughout all 3 shows. We will most certainly be booking again next year!" PTA Corresponding Secretary, PS 36 John C Drungoole School 3/1/13 Dover, DE - "My students loved the program. They were enthusiastic and excited about the program when we exited the cafeteria. Most students shared what happened with parents over the weekend. It was a hit with my class! We look forward to see the program next year. As a teacher, I like the differentiation of skills for grade levels. The skills were appropriate and challenged students to think and apply math strategies to solve each problem. Thanks for sharing this program with us." Elementary Math Specialist, North Dover Elem School 3/1/13 Dover, DE - "Several students came in to the assembly area with "attitudes" and the host immediately got them engaged with the storm in his brain and they were excited throughout the show! The program was engaging and students enjoyed the interactivity. Breaking activities into grade levels was a positive. My third grade students asked to play the 4th grade/multiples game as soon as we returned to class! That particular game ties right in with what we are covering in math right now. " Elementary Math Specialist, Fairview Elem School. 2/28/13 Dover, DE - "The humor mixed with the math and listening skills was great! Students thoroughly enjoyed their stage ages, names and activities. They had great practice with numerous math facts such as adding ten, elapsed time, comparing ages and doing all of it mentally!" Elementary Math Specialist, Towne Point Elem School. 2/28/13 Dover, DE - "The children seemed to enjoy the program, as well as the teachers.

Thank you for coming to Greenhills! We had some mixed reviews from the teachers...some thought it was great and others thought it was a bit too silly and didn't engage all students but rather mostly those on stage. I think the kids in audience who were older were following along and trying to figure out the problems along with those on stage, but the younger ones had a lot of it go over their heads I think. I think a K-1 assembly and a 2-3 assembly would be a better choice for us next time. But it was entertaining and fun for sure! Thanks again!" Teacher, Greenhills Elem. School. 2/1/13 Santa Clarita, CA- " We thought the show really engaged all the students. They enjoyed learning math and tricks to finding out the answer.

We really appreciate that the host could target the two assemblies to the older (5-8) and younger (K-4) students.
