Science of Sound Links
"How
can kids NOT get excited about science when you show up in those
rainbow coveralls!??! Your presentation was excellent: beautifully
conceived, right on with the examples for the concepts being taught,
and nicely delivered to the kids. You had them "vibrating"
with excitement about sound!
