We had Supermarket Science and Corey the Dribbler this year for a k through 5 elementary school and could not have hoped for more incredibly engaging assemblies!
Michael drew the students and faculty in with interesting and fun science “tricks” that were accessible to try on their own at home in Supermarket Science.
Corey capped the year, a returning favorite in our school, with the most amazing basketball handling, and important messages of respect, perseverance, and responsibility.
As always, Whitney made it incredibly easy to schedule and book events that fit what we were looking for and worked within the budget.  Thank you so much!!!

Jamie (AKA Dr. Science) came in today to present "Wacky Science" to our Pre K - 5th grade students and he was awesome! We have had a couple of great science experiment type presenters come in for our students, and Jamie was the most entertaining! His experiments were exciting and he did an excellent job of making the students understand the science behind the magic. He was funny and engaging and, as the music teacher, I was impressed that he incorporated his original music into his performance. It was nice for the kids to see a connection between STEM and the arts! The students got so much out of the experience! We would highly recommend this program to any school district!

Corey the Dribbler brought ALL the energy to our K-5th grade students! He kept the students engaged and amazed the entire performance. Students are still talking about his tricks, how hard he had to work to learn those tricks and their experience on the stage being a part of the show. I highly recommend a visit from Corey the Dribbler. In the words of one of our 2nd grade students, "This is every boys dream!" I must say all of our students, boys and girls alike, were amazed and focused on not only the tricks, but the message about perseverance and hard work!

John Collins (a.k.a. The Paper Airplane Guy) led two back-to-back assemblies at our school for different age groups. They were both fantastic! The kids said some of his demonstrations were like magic. But of course John corrected them to say it wasn't magic, but science! Our students have continued to make paper airplanes both for fun and for school projects. Science teachers have used them to model aerodynamics. Math teachers have recorded flight times/distances and had the kids make charts. So the learning has continued long after the assembly ended! Thanks John! Come back soon!

John Collins was an amazing presenter and has a fantastic gift for imparting his enthusiasm and knowledge of paper airplanes and flight to young students. His visit to our school was one of the most impactful assemblies we have ever had. He was also super accommodating with his time especially given some changes in his schedule. We can’t wait to see him again.

We thought that he got the kids engaged right away and had them engaged the whole time.  The children ranged fro, 3K to K and they all were engaged til the very end.  I thought he was very funny and the children were laughing the whole time.  The children were amazed and one child questioned his one trick.  They wanted him to turn the bunnies around because they knew what he was doing but then when he turned the bunnies around they were expecting the color black on the other side like the front and white on the other of the other but he tricked them and the adults with green and red on the other side.  I was stumped. Overall I thought that it was age appropriate since he kept them on their toes.  Thank you again. Hope to see him next year.

Brent Daniels virtual workshop was exciting and engaging for all grades 6-8th. The program was able to show a world of career opportunities to the kids that involves using creativity with art and music. It was inspirational and educational and most of all, it was a crowd pleaser.

As the PTA Cultural Arts Coordinator for our school, I recently had the pleasure of booking Brian Richards for his Math Magical assembly, and I must say, it was an absolute hit! From start to finish, Brian captivated the attention of both students and teachers with his mesmerizing performance.

The way Brian seamlessly integrated math concepts into his magic tricks was truly impressive. Not only were the children thoroughly entertained, but they were also learning valuable math skills without even realizing it. It was a brilliant combination of education and entertainment that kept everyone engaged throughout the entire assembly.

Brian's stage presence and interaction with the audience were top-notch. He had a wonderful rapport with the students, making them feel involved and excited to participate. The energy in the room was palpable, and the enthusiasm from both the kids and the teachers was infectious.

Overall, I cannot recommend Brian Richards and his Math Magical assembly highly enough. It was a memorable experience for our 2nd and 3rd graders, and I've received nothing but positive feedback from everyone who attended. If you're looking for an engaging and educational assembly for your school, look no further than Brian Richards. He truly works magic!

Thank you, Brian, for an incredible performance that exceeded all expectations. Looking forward to having you back again next month!

Warm regards,
-Vanessa C.

Academic Entertainment and Corey the Dribbler have been most accommodating to our needs at Richmond's First Baptist Church.  They made the process so easy from getting scheduled to making sure we were informed on all the preparation.  Corey was an outstanding performer with ball handling skills that dazzled the eyes and a connection to kids that left us wanting more.  His message was inspiring, his skill was mesmerizing, but more importantly the children were engaged from the time he stepped on to the court until signing the last autograph!  We love Corey and can't wait for another opportunity to see him in action again one day.  Thank you, Corey!
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
   
 
 

Are We Really Making a Difference with Our Assembly K-12 School Shows?

Assemblies are an integral part of the school curriculum, providing students with a break from their routine academic schedule and an opportunity to learn something new. The main aim of these shows is to educate students about important topics, motivate them, and instill a sense of responsibility towards society. But are these assembly school shows really making a difference? Do they live up to their expectations? In this blog post, we at Academic Entertaining will dive deeper into this topic and discuss the effectiveness of assembly shows in schools.

Are Assembly Shows Actually Effective?

First and foremost, it’s essential to identify the effectiveness of assembly shows in schools. Research studies have shown that school assemblies can be highly effective in educating students about different topics, including bullying, drug abuse, healthy eating, and environmental awareness. These shows not only introduce students to new and critical topics but also provide them with the opportunity to learn from experts and industry professionals. However, it is important to note that assembly shows should not be the sole tool for educating students about these topics.

Is the Timing a Factor?

The scheduling of school assembly shows can significantly impact their effectiveness. For instance, if an assembly receives placement during the week when students are preparing for an upcoming test or exam, the show will most likely be ineffective. Therefore, it is essential to organize the timing of assembly school shows effectively to ensure students retain the information covered in the show.

Feedback is Critical

The feedback mechanism following an assembly show is crucial in determining its effectiveness. This mechanism includes feedback forms, surveys, and questionnaires to be filled out by students after the show has ended. The feedback received should be reviewed to identify areas of improvement and ensure the next assembly show is even better and more informative.

Are Assembly Shows for Everyone?

Finally, Assembly shows should be inclusive of all students. Different students have various interests and learning styles, and it is essential that the shows cater to a wide range of audiences. Assembly shows can be presented in a manner that caters to a variety of students and incorporates a range of learning styles, including auditory, visual, and tactile.

In conclusion, school assembly shows can be highly effective in educating students and can play a crucial role in supporting academic curricula. However, the effectiveness of these shows is dependent on various factors, including timing, the choice of topics, feedback mechanisms, and inclusivity. Therefore, it is essential to consider these factors in planning and preparing for school assembly shows to ensure they achieve the desired objectives.

Are Virtual Shows Really that Good?

The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically altered the way we live, work, and learn. One major change in the education sector is the rise of virtual assemblies. While in-person assemblies used to be one of the highlights of the school year, schools have turned to virtual assembly shows to keep students engaged and entertained from a distance. And with the success of these virtual shows, it’s clear that they’re here to stay. In this blog post, we’ll explore why virtual assembly shows are becoming so popular, and how academic entertainment is leading the way in providing some of the best virtual shows available today.

Why Virtual Assembly Shows are Becoming Popular

Virtual assembly shows have gained popularity because they offer a unique way to bring school communities together, even at a distance. With their interactive and engaging format, virtual shows have the potential to keep students and staff connected and entertained. Additionally, virtual shows allow schools to invite a wider range of performers or speakers from all over the world, without the geographic limitations of in-person events. Finally, virtual assemblies are ideal for school-wide events that can be easily broadcasted in each classroom, helping schools build a sense of community.

Academic Entertainment has Some of the Best Virtual Shows

Academic Entertainment has been working hard to provide some of the best virtual shows available today. We offer a wide range of shows for all grade levels and are committed to creating shows that inform, inspire, and entertain students. For instance, “The Wacky Science Show” headed by Dr. Science is an engaging and straightforward educational program designed to introduce students to the scientific method in an enjoyable manner.

Our company has also integrated STEM concepts into their virtual shows, such as their “Tesla’s Time Machine” show, which teaches students about the life of Nikola Tesla and the principles of physics.
