How does this work

Can you see this Leighton?

Welcome Home Roxy!!




Welcome to Roxy our new puppy.
She's a Sichon. Right now she weights 2.6 lbs. 
Can you think of something that weighs the same as her?

Sound sandwich Video

  Watch and listen to our class as we make vibrations with high and low pitched sounds. This demonstrates that all sound is made with a vibration that travels through a medium that travels into our ears and our brain tells us what we are hearing.  Check us out!

Sound experiments






















Discovering the science of sound through all types of modalities. Hands on is definitely our favorite.
Be sure to watch the video of our sound sndwich band concert.
