Deauville Garden Elementary students learn math through threatre
PetraPuppets recently treated the students at Deauville Gardens Elementary School in Copiague to a performance highlighting the importance of math. The PTAsponsored Money, Math, Maniacs presentation was a curriculum based exploration of money and mathematics, which allowed and encouraged student participation.
Through puppets, games, and original songs and music the students learned that math could be fun, and they can learn about science, history, and many other things. Ventriloquist Steve Petruzzella used his puppets to infuse humor into math and told the students "Remember if there is money in your pocket, there is math in your head."
