Elementary After School Program Lesson Plans
So here is the magic class program for you to do that I have been teaching myself for the past fifteen years at After School Enrichment programs throughout Southern California. If you are not sure what those are, they are classes teaching a wide variety of subjects from painting, chess, dance, languages and many others to elementary age students. They are held after school at elementary schools in classrooms, multi-purpose rooms or cafeterias on campus right after regular classes let out, usually for eight weeks. Parents sign their children up and pay extra for these classes that are taught by teachers, parents of students or local professionals for the schools.

These are the lesson plan outlines for an eight week Magic Class program that actually excites kids to learn! Each week students learn new tricks that they take home to fool their family and friends with! The first week introduces them to what magic is and isn't (it isn't like the Harry Potter movies) and excites them to what is coming each week. Kid's run to magic class and get miraculously well after being sick from school to come to Magic Class. I even had one mom bring her son to Magic Class on the day he missed school.) Each week builds a bit on the week before to keep challenging the students as their skills grow. Something simpler and something more challenging each class is taught. Some favorite classes are: Houdini Day, Circus Day and Illusion Day.

The discussions that occur during a lesson like Illusion Day are fantastic learning events. How and why we are fooled by something seems very interesting to students and a great way to bring out those quality discussions we teachers love! Lessons (The course is Six Weeks. The classes are picked from these eight weeks of lessons. The course is taylored to your students interests and ages.) 1st Week: Introduction to Magic What is Magic and Illusion?
