"This is just a brief note to let you know how much the students of
Spanish and I enjoyed the presentation on Peru on Tues., April 11
presented by Professor Ana Gray as part of the Humanities Extension
OUTREACH program of NCSU.
We are very fortunate to be able to enrich our student's curriculum
each year with excellent programs such as this one, facilitated by your
department. It is also a special honor to have Professor Gray as one of
our school family's parents.
The students were very fascinated with all the information that was
shared with them about the country of Peru and were very intrigues to
learn about the current political elections taking place. Other
fascinating points were their exposure to the works of the Incas and the
Andes and their contributions to our civilization. They especially
remember the Tumi and the brain surgery. All of the children liked the
many artifacts that Professor Gray brought along to bring everything to
real life for them. I know they are curious to learn more both about the
country of Peru and the history of the Inca Empire. We at Leesville
Middle appreciate your continual support of our foreign language program.
Sincerely,
Maria G. Bonito, Spanish Teacher"
"A very interactive program which the children enjoyed immensely. The program
was not only entertaining, but allowed children to hear new vocabulary..."
"Since we are focusing intently on personal narratives and descriptive writing for our
annual state test next month, your engaging storyteling and attention to details (adding
layers to your story) were invaluable. Thank you."
"Thank you again for providing the funds that enabled us to have the African Folktelling
presentation. Our students enjoyed and learned from it. I am sure their own
presentation will be much improved from their exposure to Halima and Thomasi. Thank you!"
"Recently Clay Carmichael presented her picture book program at Fuquay-Varina Elementary.
She was wonderful, and the children just loved it. They were interested and attentive.
... You are making a difference in the lives of our children."
"Mr. Platt did a wonderful program -- filed with useful information. He kept the
children's attention. This is the type of program we like to have scheduled."
"I want to offer my profuse thanks for arranging the visit of author Clay Carmichael to
our school in January. Our children tremendously enjoyed her book-talk sesions. These wonderful
opportunities are quite rare for us..."
"Thank you for taking time out of your work to come and talk to us. Most guest speakers
are boring but you were not. I already have a little art job. I make pictures on the
school walls. Me and another boy are the only ones allowed."
