A safe, value-priced tool for those still learning to use glue guns.

Description

Just about everything you need to create your own wave model. Many students don't realize that energy is transported by waves, but with this DIY model, they're sure to never forget it! Easy, memorable, and affordable. Comes with 100 Popsicle sticks, a roll of our Super Twine Kit String, and instructions.

Also available - Mini Glue Gun

This super-low temperature glue gun is safer and cooler than other low temperature models. Great for crafts, art, school projects, and any other task that needs a cooler adhesive. The value-priced gun is a perfect starter tool for those still learning to use glue guns - and/or for projects that don't require extreme heat. Compact size makes the gun easy to prep, use, clean, and store. An excellent choice for new or inexperienced users. Adult supervision recommended for youth ages 13 and younger.

This product will support your students' understanding of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)*, as shown in the table below.

Elementary

Middle School

High School

1-PS4-3
1-PS4-4

Students can use this tool to conduct an investigation of how light and sound waves travel.

MS-PS4-1

Students can use this tool to model and describe simple waves that include how the amplitude of a wave is related to the energy in a wave.

HS-PS4-1

Students can use this tool to model and describe simple waves that include how the amplitude of a wave is related to the energy in a wave, before launching mathematical representation among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media.

Suggested Science Idea(s)

MS-PS4-1

With classroom demonstrations and investigations, the emphasis is on describing waves with both qualitative and quantitative thinking, which then can be linked with mathematical representation.
