"The presentation was really well done. The lesson moved at a pace that kept the attention of the students. They were interested in the topic and had some good questions about it. They enjoyed the presenter. She was very good at reading/telling the story, engaged the students with a game, and they loved the bear visit. The goodies were a hit too. It was perfect."
