What teachers are saying about Instructional Resources

Hank Labor from United Tribes Technical College Elementary School in Bismarck, ND
Really likes Prairie School Television [Instructional Resources] programs. “Wonderful native American programs. Goodbodies fits really well with my health curriculum. I am going to use this service to build up my school tape library.”

Jim Klipfel from Ashley Public Schools in Ashley, ND
"Thank you for the video art series that you provided. I used them with my Junior High art students. There is such a nice variety of concepts that are taught. Some of the students' favorite lessons include mandala, mosaic and paper weaving. I appreciate the fast and friendly service that I get whenever I contact the Lending Library. Thank you."

Leslie Dethlefsen from Oakes High School in Oakes, ND
"We received the rest of the "Destinos" videos. We have very much enjoyed what we have seen so far. The programs are very easy for my Spanish 2 students to understand and get into because the story is like a soap opera. They also repeat a lot of the vocabulary, which is good reinforcement.”

Wanda Follman from Wolford Elementary School in Wolford, ND
“I am writing to tell you that the videos I received are wonderful! I ordered the "Slim Goodbodies" VHS tapes to use as a health supplement. The videos are a hit with my students. I just wanted to thank you for making these available to me. We do not get cable in our area, as we are very rural. So, I made a phone call and requested the videos, and you sent them. What a wonderful service. I hope more schools utilize this great service. My students are getting so much more out of this class because of the service you provided.”

Emilie Kloster from Peter Boe Jr. Elementary School in Mayville, ND
"Thank you for the information! After I e-mailed you, I realized that I was searching on PBS.org and not PrairePublic.org. When I went to the Prairie Public Web site, I found the Lending Library information quite easily. It is a very user-friendly site! Thanks for all of your help!"

Nancy Tisor from Lincoln Elementary in Fargo, ND
"This year at Lincoln Elementary in Fargo, we are celebrating our diversity within our building. One of our teachers had seen the program "My Beautiful House" and felt it really fit with our focus this year. So, starting the 18th of November, we will be showing the 7 minute program at 8:20 and 1:10 each day. The teachers have the opportunity to watch it in their classrooms. We will do this for 30 consecutive days. We are excited about this and appreciate your programming opportunities. Thank you!”
