July is “Make a Difference to Children Month.” There is a local company that would like to Make a Difference to Children and assist them on their educational journey. Entertaining Education will take the curriculum that is being taught in our schools today; convert those lessons into puzzles, stories, games and songs, told in an animated format, using celebrity voices. The Celebrity voices will consist of singers, actors, actresses, politicians  and sport figures.  If you are a professional or feel you can help bring this very needed tool to fruition please email them at HERE.

 

Please review their Business Summary, Demo Lesson, Support Letters and their joint Press Conference with the Clark County School District and Clark County Education Association Community Foundation announcing their partnership. EntertainingEducation.org.
