"Twig fits into the mix because the films are very short and because they're short and the kids know they're short, they pay attention."
Jennifer Schaffer, 5th Grade Teacher
Terence C Reilly School"The kids like it when they can walk away with an 'Aha!' moment. And that's what Twig does for them, it gives them their 'Aha!' moments. They're like, 'ok, got it now'."
Connie Sanchez, 5th Grade Teacher
Dr Antonia Pantojo School"Today with students you need to capture their attention really quickly. In their world, everything is immediate. Entertainment is flashy; education has to be just as flashy and fun."
Mike Wansaw and Tracy Espiritu, Science Supervisors
Elizabeth Public Schools"When the kids see this Twig video, when they talk about the point of intersection, they will always remember this lion catching this zebra. It makes it much more real and the kid will remember it for a longer period of time."
