There are no magic tricks in this 45-minute STEM assembly program; just scientific demonstrations so incredible they seem magical. And, to the many volunteers from the audience helping perform them, the demonstrations seem to give them superpowers! Superpowers like these:
-One student's head seems to grow to four times its size! -Another, with a flick of their wrist, knocks down objects twenty feet away! -Finally, a student effortlessly lifts three classmates into the air!
After they demonstrate each feat, we identify the principle that makes the superpower possible and talk about where we can observe it in everyday life.
“Student were extremely engaged (and on the Friday afternoon before Winter Break!) Dave has great rapport with students, and is very clear, explicit with great repetition!” Kerri Pramberger, First Grade Teacher, John W. Kimball Elementary, Brooklyn, NY
“He’s wonderful! He has great rapport with the children (and) he’s an excellent teacher. He was positive and motivational, and constantly got the students involved. When we deal with these scientific concepts again in the classroom, the children will be miles ahead.” Fourth Grade Teachers, Millville (PA) Elementary School
