Make seismic waves in your classroom with this “wavemaker” earthquake board and kit.

The first part of this complete unit describes how to use a Slinky® spring to demonstrate four types of seismic waves — primary, secondary, Raleigh, and L-waves. Students then place their Towering Toothpick structures onto the board and create “quakes” of gradually increasing magnitude to test the durability of their designs.

Developed by teacher Ric Parlier. For grades 5-9.

Includes: assembled wavemaker, Slinky® spring, materials (plywood, springs, screws) to build a single base isolator, and a teacher’s guide including lesson plans and background information.
