Testimonials
We thoroughly enjoyed the program. The students (and teachers) learned a lot about the Lenape. This was a great way to kick off our social studies unit on the Native people of NJ. After the presentation, students started making their own Lenape artifacts with materials they found on the playground. Thank you Rob Aptaker!
Teacher, Princeton Charter School
The stories and presentation of artifacts is enjoyable for the students and teachers! We all walk away with new knowledge and a better understanding of Native American tribes. This presentation is wonderful and informative. Thank you Rob!

Thank you for organizing the Lenape assembly for our 4th graders. The presenter was wonderful, engaging, and the students learned a ton! It was perfect timing with what we are currently learning.

Rob did a wonderful job teaching the students about the Lenape people. We hope to have him return for a 3rd time next year.
Teacher, Conover Road Elementary
Once again, Mr. Aptaker helped to enhance our curriculum by bringing fascinating artifacts and knowledge of the Lenape people to our students. His expertise in presenting and his encouragement to get the students thinking are a superb culmination to our study of this topic.

Our students had a wonderful experience learning about the ways of the Lenni Lenape. Rob is full of valuable information, and it is always our hope that our students walk away with great respect for this culture. We feel they did!
