It's always nice to receive fan mail from kids who had a great time with one of our assembly programs! This week, we got in a letter for Mr. Will, the presenter of our Kidz Science Safari program, from a fan named Abigail.
Ask any good teacher how kids learn the best, and they will give you the same answer. Given a choice between learning through listening to a lecture or learning through hands on experience, the latter will always provide better results. There is an old saying sometimes attributed to Confucius and sometimes to Ben Franklin. Regardless of who said it, it holds a lot of wisdom.
Mobile Ed has been producing school shows and school assemblies for a long time. More than thirty years to be exact. In that time we have sent our awesome shows into many cities and states across this great country. We now visit some 6000 schools a year in more than thirty states!
