World renowned illusionist, Christian Augustine, visited Frankfort-Schuyler Elementary School on March 18 for two performances of his show “The Magic of Learning,” which encourages students to explore some of their favorite subjects in a whole new way.

Students were awestruck as Augustine demonstrated magic tricks and illusions that incorporated math, science and physics in an educational and entertaining way. Several students had the opportunity to assist Augustine with tricks like the Chinese linking rings and the impossible puzzle. Throughout the performances Augustine also shared interesting stories about world history, the origins of various tricks and the importance of reading.

The assemblies, sponsored by the Frankfort-Schuyler PTO, showed students that that not only is school important, but that they can learn while having fun.
