Three programs for Atlanta schools

One 45-minute session per grade level or grade band, run back to back across one date. Book one program or build a day from more than one.

Big Idea Wonder Lab - a 45-minute live science show for one grade level or grade band

Large-scale experiments your students watch happen in front of them, run by presenters who know how to hold a full assembly audience. Chemistry reactions, physics demonstrations, launches and electricity, sized so the back row sees everything. Five show variants means a school can book Wonder Lab several years running without repeating: Chemistry Chaos, Wacky Physics, Fire and Ice, Launch Lab and Power Lab.

Big Idea Mystery Lab - a 45-minute mystery a whole audience solves together

A case opens, and the entire audience works it. Students examine evidence, follow the storyline, test what they are told and reach the answer as a group. Built around observation, deduction and inference, with reading comprehension and vocabulary running through it. The whole room solves it, not three volunteers.

Big Idea Dinosaur Adventures - a 45-minute performer-led dinosaur show for one grade level or grade band

Life-like dinosaurs and real fossils, with storytelling that carries Earth science and paleontology into a format elementary students stay with for the full session. Our longest-running program, and the one that has played to the largest audiences.

Georgia Standards of Excellence subject areas

Georgia writes its elementary science and English Language Arts standards by grade, which is why we run several sessions across a day rather than one whole-school assembly. Each show is pitched to the grades in the room.

  • Wonder Lab - elementary science, by grade level or grade band
  • Mystery Lab - reading comprehension, inference and vocabulary
  • Dinosaur Adventures - Earth science and life science

Tell us what your submission needs to cover and we will send a detailed description of each program for your curriculum lead.

How a Big Idea assembly day works

How It Works

  • Tell us your date and your space

    Send your preferred date, your student count and where the program will run. Auditorium, gym or cafeteria all work.

  • We build the day around your school's bell schedule

    We recommend one session per grade level or grade band, scheduled back to back, so each show is tailored to the age and learning level of the students in the room. We will work with your school's timetable to make scheduling simple and seamless.

  • We arrive, set up and run it

    Our team brings the equipment, props and sound. Your staff walks the students in and watches.

  • We pack out

    Setup and teardown are ours. The space goes back exactly as we found it.

What You Provide

  • A space that fits your audience

    An auditorium, gym or cafeteria with room to comfortably seat the grade level or grade band attending each session.

  • Access to electricity

    One standard outlet within reach of the presenting area.

  • Your students

    We bring everything else - presenters, equipment, props and sound.

Scheduling and procurement

Several sessions on one date is our standard booking, not an exception, and it is priced as one visit rather than as several. You give us the timetable and our team handles the resets between sessions, so classes move once and your schedule holds.

Assembly dates for the school year fill six to eight weeks ahead. Schools and districts book on a purchase order, and certificates of insurance are available on request.
