K-6 Classroom Special Events - Toy Building Adventures

Preview: "Light & Sound" On-Demand Video Lesson 

 

Have your light detectors (eyes) and sound detectors (ears) ready!  We’re building a “Mini Movie Machine” and  “Musical Measuring Stick” while exploring Light and Sound Sources, Vibrations, Pitch, Opacity and more!

 

Grade:                 K-3 

Length:                60-90 minutes.
Group Size:         15-150 students.
Students need:    “Light and Sound” Toymaker Kits, colored markers, stapler, tape.

 

More Info:   Your primary students will experience a fun-filled, hands-on toy-building adventure that directly supports and extends national science standards around the topic of Light and Sound.

 

Professional toy inventor and nationally recognized educator Rick “Mister Toymaker” Hartman provides the  instruction with a Video-Guided (On-Demand) lesson teeming with scientific surprises, entertaining demonstrations and informative content.

 

Your students will use simple materials like wood blocks, wheels and rubber bands to build two fascinating toys that demonstrate important concepts studied in classrooms. Topics like: light and sound sources, receivers, optical illusions, properties (e.g. transparency, translucence, opacity), pitch, volume and vibration.

 

Perfect for curriculum enhancement, "In-School Field Trips," and other special occasions, the "Light and Sound" workshop promises to be a "Best Day Ever" for students, teachers, and parent volunteers alike!

    Students were highly engaged throughout the entire workshop

    Oh my gosh, it couldn't have gone any better! The students were highly engaged throughout the entire workshop, and I believe you taught them our lesson on transparent, translucent and opaque objects! 🤗😊 As we teach our upcoming STEMScopes unit, we will be able to revisit many things that you taught our students. Your workshop was well aligned with our curriculum! Wow, thank you! 😊
