Booking Information and Fees  

Here's how to book the Math assembly program that you want and your students will LOVE!

Fees

The fees for the presentations are $1,195 for a full-day (4-6 presentations), or $695 for a half day (2 presentations).  A full day can be split between two schools at no additional charge.  Thus you could have 2 Math-A-Magic assemblies at your school in the morning and again at a different school in the afternoon.  Each school would pay one half of the full day fee ($597.50 each).  This will allow each school to have up to two assemblies.  The only caveats are that both schools must be close enough for the presenter to get from one school to the other and reset for the afternoon programs. 

We have trained presenters located around the country, and there is probably someone near you.  Schools that are more than 100 miles from where our presenters are based must book full days, or partner with a nearby school to make up a full day.  Schools that are more than 200 miles from home must book 2 or more full days of programs.  Fortunately, this is not very difficult, and we have painless methods of helping you recruit other schools to join in the tour.  If you are able to help book the number of programs needed for your area, there will be no travel fees!  
 

What Do We Get for Our Money?

In addition to the educationally sound, highly entertaining program described elsewhere in the pages of this site, we promise the following:

• A professional performer who will be easy to work with, easy to reach, and pleasant to speak to before, during and after the visit.

• A presenter who will show up, early, well dressed and ready to go, who needs very little in the way of supplies, amenities or attention from you.  Usually we would only need an electrical outlet, an LCD or overhead projector, a screen or a blank wall, a table and an audience.  No green M&M’s, no bottles of freshly chilled glacier water, no worries!

• A well rehearsed, precision tuned program presented through a high quality sound system that will teach and entertain your students and will impress your principal and other teachers.

• A presenter who understands the math he or she teaches!

To Book Math-a-Magic for Your School

First, you need to decide how many assemblies you will need to get all the students in to see the program.  Ideally, the smaller the group, the better.  We have seen amazing comprehension and retention when presenting to groups of less than 50.  Of course, we can and do present to much larger groups very effectively, all the time.  Depending on the set up at your school, we can break the students into groups as large as 175 kids if they are sitting on the same level as the presenter.  Any more than this and the kids in the back feel that they can't see and it is a constant battle to keep them seated.  No one gets as much out of the program in these situations. 

If a differentiated performance area can be provided (such as a stage for the performer, OR risers or tiered seating like bleachers for the kids) then our presenter can handle as many as 500 students at a time.

Next, contact us by e-mail or phone (see the Contact Us page) asking about available dates for your area.  Let us know your preference and we will work to meet your needs if at all possible.  Because the program is presented by different performers, depending on your location, we do not have a centralized calendar to show our availability.  We are working on it, and hope to have this problem solved soon! 

At this point, once you have decided on a date and called or e-mailed, your presenter will get back in touch with you by your selected method of contact within 1-2 school days.  Because we are often in school presenting programs during your office hours, e-mail may be the best way to begin the conversation.

When we respond, we will answer your questions and begin the booking process.  

After we book the assemblies (and any other schools in your area) we will send out a packet of information that includes a confirmation letter, invoice, promotional materials, teacher classroom guides, a bibliography of the books used in the program, a vocabulary list, and a sheet outlining how to get the most from our visit.  What you will NOT get are surprises, difficult riders, or lengthy contracts with silly demands. 

For years, it has been our goal to be the EASIEST school show performance you will ever bring to your school.  Check out some of the testimonials on the website to see what other schools have had to say about our presenters and this amazing program and you’ll understand why so many schools invite us back, time after time.
