String together how instruments produce sound. Using pieces of string, learners find ways to create sound. They investigate changes to the string and the effect of adding a cup. Finally, pupils experiment by changing the way to create...

Young scholars make predictions and explore how pitch is altered in string instruments. In this acoustic science instructional activity, students learn the types and parts of string instruments and create their own. They listen to...

In this science worksheet, students are given the task of recording weather information twice daily using the homemade weather instruments.

Students engage in a lesson which takes something constructed by the class, that would be normally classified as just sound, then work together to make what can be perceived to be music. Students construct a basic stringed instrument...

Learners compose songs about recycling. In this ecology lesson, students use vocabulary and concepts related to recycling to generate lyrics for an original song. Learners construct musical instruments out of discarded materials.

In this science worksheet, students look for the data that is needed to fill in the graphic organizer. The prefixes are given that are needed to sort the information as it is collected.

The animal kingdom is full of interesting organisms that have unique ways of surviving. Children read about different insects that have special tools for building homes and protecting themselves. When finished, learners identify the main...

Students construct their own galvanometer. In this physics lesson, students explain how it is used to detect electric current. They conduct an experiment to measure how much electricity flows through the circuit.

This challenge is to design and build a headphone system to hear a musical instrument (real or homemade) better. Can you do it?

Students determine the refractive index of a liquid with a simple technique using a semi-circular hollow block. Then they predict the refractive index of a material (a Pyrex glass tube) by matching it with the known refractive index of a...
