Making Magic wth the Scientific Method
Illusionist Bill Blagg’s brand-new Magic Science Lab will have students on the edge of their seats…in the classroom or at home…as they discover how science creates magic right before their very eyes! During this digital “Arts Engagement” students join Bill inside the Magic Science Lab where they will explore how magicians use the “secret” five step process (The Scientific Method) to create their illusions! Together with Bill, they will use the “secret” five steps to make a person magically float in mid-air! As a bonus, Bill teaches a science-based magic trick that students can do at home or in class – how to make a pencil float in the palm of their hand!
