Like a storm of urban, hip-hop science surging across the country, FMA Live! has reached an amazing 500 middle schools in over 181 markets throughout the U.S. and Canada —from Miami to Chicago and Los Angeles to New York. And it’s still going!
The latest middle school craze, this live, festival of Forces and Motion captures the attention of students and teachers alike creating a wave of frenzied fans in every town it hits. Show-goers witness Sir Isaac Newton's legendary Three Laws of Motion and experience science in a way never before seen or heard.
Here’s what the fans are saying:
"I was extremely impressed with the FMA Live! experience! FMA Live! is a high quality student program which our kids enjoyed tremendously – and benefited from, too. I would highly recommend your program to other schools!"
— Anita Silavs, Principal, Vista View Middle School, Fountain Valley, California
"I am writing to tell you how much I enjoyed and appreciated having the FMA Live! show visit IS281 in Brooklyn. I attended one of the performances myself and was thrilled to see the excitement that it generated. The lessons that it teaches ties nicely with our 6th grade units of study on forces and motion. I hope that FMA Live! will visit New York City next year, and I look forward to working with Honeywell on many other endeavors in the future."
— Dr. Julia Rankin, Director of Science, New York City Department of Education
"Having visuals to emphasize a difficult concept such as Newton’s Three Laws of Motion was incredible! Making it apply to real-life situations made it even better!"
— Rob Harthoorn, 8th Grade Teacher, Amy L. Houston Academy, Phoenix, Arizona
"The presentation of FMA Live! was excellent, motivational, relevant and taught content. Students were actively involved in FMA Live! Thanks!"
— Dr. Charlotte Boyle, Superintendent, Creighton School District, Phoenix, Arizona
"The response to this program was phenomenal! I have never witnessed a better-developed and influential program for science. Not only was it relative to our state curriculum standards, but it presented Newton’s Laws of Motion in a way that students actually learned but could also appreciate the ramifications of the laws in their everyday life. Students that have never had an interest in science are talking about action and reaction. I have had students give me their testimonials of the program for days. A truly moving experience!"
— Tim Strickland, Science Department Chair, Collierville Middle School, Collierville, Tennessee
"FMA Live! was an outstanding program. The cast and crew were excellent and very professional. The content of the program and many demonstrations did a great job holding student attention. Students really learned something about science in a fun, exciting way. All of us at Largo Middle say thanks to Honeywell, NASA and the cast and crew of FMA Live! for educating and entertaining us."
— Jenna Wyne, Assistant Principal, Largo Middle School, Largo, Florida
