04. Proud Like A Mountain

"Your concert has great ties with the curriculum... teachers, students and parents loved your performance... please visit again!" Calgary Elementary School.

The latest concert from Peter Puffin's Whale Tales draws from Peter's new double Proud Like a Mountain CD to inspire students to boost their own self esteem, critical thinking skills, and take responsibility for contributing to caring communities... in the school, and beyond.

A post-concert package of classroom activities reinforce interactive concert themes like:  

  • Environmental science (water and habitat conservation) and language literacy.
  • NEW social studies topics ranging from celebrating Alberta, peace building, zero tolerance for bullying... to being responsible and welcoming global citizens.
  • Boosting academic and social confidence by realising we all have eight Multiple Intelligences! (Gardner).
  • Audience volunteers are peer teachers, and wear hilarious NEW costumes of WILD Alberta animals and trees.
  • Singing is good for the soul! Music reaches the heart! Embedding desired curriculum outcomes in lyrics offers students an efficient way to really learn concepts.
  • We are pleased to tailor-make the show with your current school themes.
  • See www.puffin.ca for contact info and a booking request form.

From encouraging a sense of belonging (Kindergarten) to welcoming our community of learners as a Global Village (Div II SS), join multiple award-winning, certified teacher / guitar-slinger Peter Lenton (aka Peter Puffin) for a rollicking school community building experience that will educate, entertain, delight, and inspire!

More praise... "I, as well as my students enjoyed the concert very much! Peter, you were exceptional at keeping the children's attention & focus! Had them captivated the whole time! Bravo. Very entertaining and educational. Even by Grade 6 'coolness' standards, it was superb!  Students are still singing the songs. Awesome!" Wheatland Elementary School, Strathmore, Alberta.
