Young rockers can build their working guitar, just like the pros!
This innovative do-it-yourself guitar kit transforms music-making into a comprehensive STEM learning experience that goes far beyond traditional creativity. Students will dive deep into scientific concepts including measurement, engineering principles, programming fundamentals, sound physics, wave theory, and experimental design while building their very own functional instrument. The hands-on construction process naturally integrates multiple disciplines, allowing learners to understand the science behind music creation while developing practical engineering and problem-solving skills!
The kit's cutting-edge technology integration sets it apart from conventional music projects. Included AR cards seamlessly connect with the FREE NEWTON AR app, enabling students to measure sound waves, analyze acoustic properties, and interact with their custom-built guitars through an engaging virtual Rube Goldberg contraption.
This classroom pack contains 24 complete kits, making it perfect for full classroom implementation, and comes with comprehensive directions plus 5 standards-aligned lessons that guide educators through structured learning experiences that blend creativity with rigorous STEM education!
