SCIENCE SHOW

Performance


The science show is a popular science performance lasting one school class where experiments in the field of natural sciences are performed in front of the audience. This form is interesting, humorous, colourful, but above all educational. Through games and experiments, participants are becoming better acquainted with natural sciences and rational critical thinking, and learn how to approach problems not only in science but also in life.

The programme is performed on a stage or in a separate section of the room, facing the audience. The programme is conducted by one or two science demonstrators, depending on the conditions of the available space, which must have good ventilation because gases which can have unpleasant smell are used during the experiments. Also, a power supply and a source of liquid water are required, as well as a large work desk. The show also includes volunteers from the audience, so it is important that access to the stage is free.

A FIRE TORNADO

Then comes an experiment with a fire tornado, which talks about the atmospheric conditions and the nature of flame, all in a quite attractive way. The show closes with an experiment with dancing flames and a story about the nature of sound, the mechanisms of hearing and the link between physics and music. Shorter experiments with balloons, ropes, paper and other everyday things are also performed between these sections. Of course, after the show, there is time for a discussion and questions from the audience. The show is primarily intended for primary school students, but with its attractiveness and interesting facts that run throughout the programme, it will be interesting to everyone.
