THE MAGIC OF SCIENCE is a show which is presented to Key Stage 2 pupils in Primary Schools. It is also suitable for Middle and Lower 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 can be fun'.
The presentation lasts about 45-60 minutes and is suitable for groups of about 150 children at a time.
During the last twenty or so years Tony has visited over 600 schools with the show, many of them several times.
He is the author of Science Fun one of the books in the popular ‘Bright Ideas’ series published by Scholastic Ltd. His recent booklet The Magic of Science contains many of the items presented in the show.
No magic is performed in the show. However his knowledge of the entertainment business together with 17 years teaching experience (including 6 years as a Head Teacher) enable him to provide an entertaining and educational presentation.
The children will go away from the show wanting to try out some of the ideas they will have seen
