Ear Gongs Lesson Plan
In this activity you can make a coat hanger sound like Big Ben by tapping it against a table and allowing the vibrations to travel through the various materials to your inner ear. Lesson plan with downloadable instructions and template.
Ear Guitar Lesson Plan
When you pluck the string on an Ear Guitar, the string starts vibrating. The vibration in the string starts the bottom of the cup vibrating, which starts the air inside the cup vibrating. The cup helps channel those vibrating air molecules into your ear-so you hear the sound loud and clear.
