You’ll hear lots of “oohing” and “ahhhing” during our dazzling science shows. They’re a great value for large groups, grades TK–8.
Science shows are fully booked for this school year. Book now for summer programs and for the 22-23 school year!
Dynamic demonstrations and lots of audience participation will excite your students about science. Assemblies are an excellent way to expose curious minds to concepts that can be reinforced in the classroom or expanded on with follow-up activities. Programs are well-suited to multiple grades or even the entire school, from 40 to 300 attendees per show.
Science shows are available as both in-person and as shorter 30 minute virtual programs. Virtual science shows allow student participation through chat features and video. Students will be asked to make predictions, ask questions, and use hand signals to show their thinking.
