Dazzling Dave Yo-Yo Presentation and Workshop - Dave Schulte
Students will have an opportunity to watch the amazing things possible with a simple yo-yo. They will then be given a chance to learn some of those skills through a hands on workshop following the performance.
The students will gain a new interest in the growing sport of yo-yo arts. Dave teaches the students hand-eye coordination, goal setting and achievement, performance techniques and the fundamentals of physics. Anecdotal responses were collected.
There were LOTS of oohs and ahhs. I had several families ask if we could get him back. Watching the kids smiles was great. All of the students that stayed for the workshop also purchased yo-yos. I have seen many of those students back checking out books about yo-yo tricks.
The Granite Falls Public Library and Canby Public Library both partnered in booking the presenter.
