Description

CPO Science features complete, coordinated active learning core curriculum programs rich in STEM connections and aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). With Wave Models, your students have everything they need to develop a deep understanding of harmonic motion, waves, and sound. The Pendulum investigations provide students with an ideal introduction to harmonic motion, sound, and waves. The concepts of cycle, period, frequency, and amplitude are intuitively illustrated, while advanced concepts such as extrapolation, rate of change, and functions can also be explored. The Sound and Waves investigations open up fascinating questions for hands-on explorations that are guaranteed to grab your students’ attention.

STEM concepts covered in Wave Models include harmonic motion, harmonic motion graphs, period, frequency, amplitude, waves, sound, music, harmony, natural frequency, interferences, resonance, wavelength, energy, and wave speed.
