As you ponder ideas for school assemblies for next year, consider the following...
Libraries all over the country having been dancing with joy having discovered what a perfect fit our Sky Dome portable planetarium is for their Collaborative Summer Reading Theme this year. We are hearing from libraries all over the country and it looks as though our inflatable planetarium domes will be working hard all summer to keep pace with demand!
Many libraries, of course, subscribe to the Collaborative Summer Reading Themes, and this year those themes are “Think Big” and “Own The Night”, so with an absolutely enormous portable planetarium dome, in which we can project the night sky for large groups of kids and adults, Sky Dome is the perfect answer!
2012 is shaping up to be a truly great year for science assembly programs! The pioneer in this field, Mobile Ed already leads the pack with 12 different awesome school shows covering the science fields of Astronomy, Geography, Chemistry, Physics, Environmental Science and Natural Science. We already announced that two of those programs - Chemistry! It Really Matters! and Forces and Motion will be starting out the 2012-2013 school year completely refreshed and renewed with exciting new props, experiments and an awesome new performer. Now we have news for you of a super cool totally new science assembly program joining our team for 2012.
I love this time of year! Spring is when we get to announce all our new programs. It is all very exciting!
With all the talk of Dave Mitchell’s stunning anti bullying school assembly - Stronger Than a Bully - we sometimes neglect to mention that his first program for us - Ben Franklin - is actually a stunner in itself!
Many years ago, back in the murky primordial days of school assemblies, when Mobile Ed Productions and a few others first began introducing schools to the joy of school science assemblies, it was quite a breakthrough concept. Used to magic shows and clowns and rope twirlers, schools readily embraced the new idea that a school assembly could be more than just an entertaining diversion. And, in truth, many of the school shows available back then were good shows (though a lot were not!), but they were just entertaining. They did little at all to advance the educational goals of schools.
