Class Experience

Learn all about waves with a fun escape room experience!  We've been kidnapped by a group of angry aliens, but one nice alien, Ditto, will help us get back home using a series of mechanical and electromagnetic waves.  We will use online simulators and short video clips to learn about amplitude, frequency, wavelength, reflection, refraction, and so much more!  We will learn the difference between radio and gamma waves and figure out why black surfaces get so hot.  All young scientists who accompany Ditto on this trip will be returned to Earth safely at the end of the hour.
