Program Description
SUMMARY: Students are introduced to a wide variety of scientific topics, challenging them to think logically and scientifically. Their curiosity leads the way to the ultimate in inquiry-based learning as children ask, "How did they do that?" Scientific concepts ranging from optics to optical illusions and the importance of observation to the chemistry of hydrophobic polymers are investigated. ** Every student takes home a "Mad Science Curious Cube" ** EDUCATIONAL VALUE: The Science of Magic is a unique class. It aims not to introduce children to any particular scientific area, concept, or theme, but to challenge the children to think logically, and therefore, scientifically. Hopefully, “How did they do that?” will become the initial question that children will ask themselves, not only when watching a magic show, but also when simply observing the fascinating world around them. Children’s natural curiosity provides the perfect stepping stone for understanding magic.
