Elem/Middle School
Design a sound amplifier using different shapes and materials. Before beginning the challenge, students should be familiar with the properties of sound waves and understand the definition of “acoustics.” The activity supports 3-dimensional learning and builds toward the following:
- NGSS Scientific and Engineering Practices: Asking Questions; Planning and Carrying Out Investigations
- NGSS Core Idea: Engineering, Technology, and the Application of Science 1: Engineering Design
