Hear screaming rods, visualize sound waves, observe tubes singing to heat, hear a sonic boom and more!
Concepts covered:
- What do sound waves look like? Do sound waves always travel at the same speed?
- How does the Doppler effect work? What is resonance?
- How does a soundwave change with pitch and increasing volume?
- Can sound travel through a vacuum? How are sound effects made?
- What causes a sonic boom? See sand form weird patterns to soundwaves and much more!
Primary students will gain an understanding of how soundwaves operate and how this knowledge is applied in the real world, plus have lots of fun! This school science performance can also be viewed as a LIVE web conference anywhere in the world!
Online Class Version
We’ve run live interactive distance programs since 2010 and are highly experienced in making online classes engaging for students on a variety of web conferencing platforms.
- All of the same curriculum points will be covered, but the activities may vary from those listed for face-to-face incursions.
- Our online classes include demonstrations, Q&A, and hands-on activities (you will receive a materials list upon booking).

- Each student should test their Zoom connection here.
- Once the date & time is arranged we will send you simple connection instructions (one click & you’re in!)
I just wanted to pass on how much the staff and students really enjoyed it and how perfect it was to launch our science week activities. The students were enthralled, educated and entertained – a perfect trifecta!
-Caulfield Grammar School – Big Science Big FunThanks so much for presenting at our school on Monday. Our students enjoyed the show.
-Greenvale Primary School – Big Science Big FunFizzics Education curated a thoughtful and hands-on experience for the children, incorporating practical, skill-based learning activities and followed by a science presentation at the end of the event involving liquid nitrogen. This was delivered safely and effectively, capturing both the children and the parents for the duration of the presentation.
-Macquarie Bank – Family Fun DayFizzics Education ran a show today at our school and it was wonderful. He was a great facilitator and the show was age appropriate and well done.
