GGA10-02:  SCIENCE IS FUN & MAGICAL!

INSTRUCTOR(S): Al Stawicke, alsmagic@cheqnet.net
GRADE LEVEL: K-12
(5-Day Workshop)
 


After my keynote address three years ago many people asked if I would offer a workshop to explain and teach all of the "secrets" behind my science-magic demonstrations and activities!  This workshop is guaranteed to add excitement to your science classroom as well as introduce great hands-on experiments that will enrich your curriculum.  Time will be set aside to practice, possibly build, and test all demonstrations and tricks.  The art of magic will be introduced and participants will be encouraged to bring a favorite activity or demonstration to share with the group.  At the end of the workshop, time will be set aside for a short "Science-Magic Show", allowing participants to share with the group one special trick or demonstration that they have learned during the week.  All participants will receive a science-magic packet of materials, a set of handouts, and a free "Science Is Fun" t-shirt.

Participant Outcomes:

PLEASE NOTE: In order to have all of the science magic packets, handouts and "Science Is Fun" t-shirts available for those attending this workshop, we must have registrations for Science Is Fun and Magical! not later than May 15, 2008.  Register now to reserve a spot in this great workshop!  Late registrations will not be accepted for this workshop.
