Program / Event Details

MatheMagic!™ is a real theatrical magic show with music costumes comedy and illusions. In this fun format kids (unknowingly) practice classroom skills i.e. math facts and problem-solving.

In the course of the show we discover that the first “magicians” were really mathematicians! (By using math they were able to “do the impossible”.) We then go on to learn about mathematical contributions from the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Indians, Chinese, and other cultures. This approach enables us to engage and challenge students of different ages and abilities with facts and ideas they can all understand. There is audience participation throughout in which thinking skills are encouraged.
