I wasn't always Lincoln.
Education Through Entertainment
It goes without saying, I suppose, that a company like ours, occupied 24/7 year round, with developing and performing entertaining and educational school assembly programs, would be a staunch advocate of a broad based approach to education. It makes sense, for example, that a company that produces school shows that teach not only reading and math but also, science, writing, social studies and a variety of other disciplines would be against changes in the teaching of education that diminish the importance of subjects like social studies in favor of increased emphasis on other areas like reading and math. Not that we are against reading and math, you understand, but just that we value equally a great variety of other subjects.
They say the only two things you can count on in life are death and taxes. Well, there is one more, at least. Prices continue to rise year after year for almost everything. No where has this been more true in recent years than in the world of road warrior school assembly performers.
I have written before about one of our presenters who is a personal favorite of mine and a very good friend. His name is Toma, and he performs several shows for us but is especially renowned for his own creation Young Authors Day.
April Showers Bring May School Assemblies, or something like that... more like January snow brings a longer school year. This winter has been tough and a lot of school districts are facing the prospect of a longer school year in order to make up the lost time. Sadly, in many cases, with the extra days thrown in at the end of the year it does not help schools prepare for testing which occurs in most states in the Spring. By May and June testing is usually done. School are looking for things to do. And with a longer school year, in some areas stretching into nearly the end of June, there is a lot of time to fill.
Normally I write about school assemblies and school shows, as school assembly programs make up the lion’s share of our business. Mobile Ed Productions was, after all, founded to help educate children through entertaining and educational school assemblies.
