Waves Demo

We've been working hard the last few days to understand waves.  Today we are going to experiment with a few so we can see them up close and personal.  We will be making transverse and compressional waves today using a heavy rope and a slinky.  The students will get to hear a few new sounds today too.  We'll be able to observe the various sounds of a slinky and a metal clothes hanger.

The start up for today is "Compare and contrast all four of the different types of waves we've been learning about."
