How fast is the speed of sound?  How does sound travel?  Just what is sound in the first place??  In this JAM, we will be studying the properties of sound and what allows us to perceive it.  We will do a simple little experiment to demonstrate how sound waves move and, when they bounce into each other, how the sound changes.  Once we’ve established a basic understanding of what sound is, we will make a harmonica!  While it is going to be a simple, DIY device made with craft sticks, coffee stirrers, rubber bands and wax paper, it will demonstrate how sound is produced.

Registration opens on June 5th at 10:00 am
