Touring Chicago from Branson, MO

Chicago Area School Science Assemblies

Science and math assemblies for elementary and middle schools in the Chicago area, led by Emmy nominee David Hagerman, the Science Wizard. Two performers, giant demonstrations and a lesson hidden inside every laugh.

This was a very good assembly (one of the best we have had) as far as getting educational value as well as entertaining value.
