Through demonstration and lecture students will learn four amazing magic tricks that can be performed with common household items. Classes will also cover presentation and the principles of magic. Day 1: The Simple Card Force. In this class students will learn how to "force" a card so that they can later reveal it by "magic." The force used requires minimal sleight of hand and can be performed by anyone with enough dexterity to shuffle cards. Day 2: Disappearing Coin. Using this trick the students will cause a coin to vanish before the audience's eyes. Bonus trick! To warm up the audience you will learn how to "levitate" the coin before making it disappear. This humorous trick often produces groans as well as laughter, but is always a crowd pleaser. Day 3: The Professor's Nightmare. A classic rope trick or ropes change size at the will of the magician. This trick always wows the audience. Day 4: The Prediction Bag. Students will construct their own "Prediction Bag" that can be used to seemingly tell the future.
