We're getting down to the short hairs here in Richmond Hill, GA. I'm doing a demo for multiple classes this coming Friday at Carver Elementary. Every 4th grade kid at this school will be exposed to the theremin. These are big classes (4 total of about 90 kids each).

I plan a short video clip (2 minutes), short demo of my playing (1 minute), Q and A (5 minutes), Sing along with piano (maybe 20 minutes), and some hands on time with the Etherwave. I'll have both of my theremins there, taking lessons from others on this forum who have regaled us with horror stories of technical failures, snafus, etc.

The idea with the above format is to keep it in bite sized chunks and to keep it fun. Any suggestions?

Thanks

i like the idea posted over at the "place that shall not be named".
The last one for kids that I did, I learnt a bunch of TV themes from kids shows and had played those and had the kids guess and or sing along.

Short report: it went well. Fun was had by all. Photos and other stuff after I'd had a nap. Daddy is all tuckered out and Jordan is so proud!
