Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Preschoolers and school-aged kids will engage in and enjoy a cultural dance program with a storytelling element.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Clapping, foot-stomping, graceful arms, spins and more between the pages of "Lola's Fandango." Dancers from 3 to 65 had a wonderful time, especially a 9-10 year old boy who really "got" the dance. Tons of fun. Deborah read "Lola's Fandango" and stopped periodically to teach flamenco moves - culminating in a flamenco dance. Ages skewed very young which was too bad: older kids would have really enjoyed it. The young kids "did" enjoy it and the performer/program was excellent.
