A funny diversity, inclusion, ability awareness, kindness, educational elementary school assembly.

Program Synopsis:

A 40 minute program begins with Richard bringing his hands to life. His left hand "Lefty" thinks that the right hand, "Righty" (shorter arm with two fingers) can't do things he can do. "Righty" quickly explains that just because someone looks different doesn't mean that they can't do things as long as they try!

Peking Duck, with the help of a few teachers and students, re-tells the classic Ugly Duckling story with a hilarious modern day twist. Everyone learns to look beyond the ugly duckling to see the swan.

Next Richard demonstrates to the children how important diversity is to our world. He explains that throughout history there have been many who have overcome racial, physical, and cultural stereotypes to create, invent and become valuable assets to our country and the world. Pictures of famous historical figures come to life to light-heartedly share some facts and information.

The puppets, props, humor and thought-provoking information, help students to think twice before making judgments or assumptions and reinforce that diversity is not only cool, it is "ducky cool."

"Thank you, Richard – your presentation was fantastic! I heard so many wonderful comments from students and staff. Thanks again!"
Steve Glaize, Principal Hallowell Elementary School
