Grade Level: Middle School
DCI: Forces and Motion
Students design solutions to help reduce the risk of concussions. The investigation allows students to understand the mechanisms of collisions and how materials can reduce impact force.
Grade Level: High School
DCI: Forces and Motion
Students learn about momentum and impact forces. The activity challenges students to understand what happens inside the skull during a concussion event and to investigate how materials can reduce impact forces.
Grade Level: Middle School
DCI: Wave Properties
Students use models to learn about the properties of waves like amplitude, frequency, and wavelength. Students can then put their knowledge to the test as they try to assemble their own speaker at home.
