In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

Make a rattle-like musical instrument! Shake it, hit it, spin it any way you want to!

This is a simple activity for learners to create a traditional musical instrument. Pan Pipes have developed all over the world in different cultures, from South America to Greece and China.

In this fun group activity involving music and movement, learners are introduced to the idea that many insects walk by using their legs to create "alternating triangles." Learners sing the "Ants Go Ma

In this fun snack and craft activity, young learners make "Ants on a Log" and their own model of an insect. The purpose is to learn the three main insect body parts—head, thorax and abdomen.

Learners build a simple electromagnet, then use this electromagnet to transform a yogurt container into a working speaker. They can connect their speaker to a radio and listen as it transmits sound.

From this How To slide show, you create an Audio Tape Bow that can play distorted audio sounds by running it across a tape head.

Put on a pair of gloves and be the conductor of your invisible orchestra!

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing tube zithers, stringed instruments from Southeast Asia and the South Pacific.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing their very own instruments using PVC pipes, soda bottles, and a straw.

Learners design and create musical instruments from common objects; their challenge is to create an instrument that can make three different tones.

In this activity, learners build their own sound machines and explore the interplay of motion and sound.

Learners explore soybeans, soak them in water to remove their coat, and then split them open to look inside. They also make a musical shaker out of paper cups, a cardboard tube, and soybeans.

In this math lesson, learners apply the Monte Carlo method of simulation to determine a reasonable estimate.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a four-stringed instrument that can play a tune.

In this activity, learners construct a traditional handicraft toy that illustrates a motion commonly associated with violins and earthquakes.

In this activity, learners explore how an electromagnet works by making a simple one. Using this knowledge, learners design a diagram to make a working speaker using household materials.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing their very own bagpipe instrument.

Build a phonograph record player using a cactus needle, a record, LEGOs gear box, and a piece of paper! This activity uses a Pico Cricket to turn the motor.

Break open that used musical toy and squish some Play-Doh over the circuit boards, and you will hear some weird and distorted sounds the manufacturer never intended!
