THE
MAGIC OF SCIENCE is a show which is presented to Primary, Middle and
Secondary Schools. It demonstrates to the children simple practical ideas
in science which they can try for themselves.
THE MAGIC OF SCIENCE is a learning experience in some of the basic areas of physics. The ideas shown are designed to encourage the development of practical, manipulative and cognitive skills. They can be followed up as a special project or slotted into the curriculum at the right moment
The aim of the show is to enable children to see that 'science is fun'.
At the end of the presentation the children will be very eager to try out the ideas themselves and have their own 'hands on experience'.
During the last few years I have visited over 600 schools with my show, many of them several times.
Many
of my ideas in THE MAGIC OF SCIENCE show form the basis
of a book I have written called 'The Magic of Science'.
No magic is performed in the show. However my knowledge of the entertainment business together with 17 years teaching experience (including 6 years as a Head Teacher) enable me to provide an entertaining and educational presentation.
