STEM Stencil: Transverse Wave Properties and Structure

thingiverse

Update! Now includes a party version with hearts & stars! Couldn't find it, so I remixed it! This tool will help students create interactive notebook entries, labs, and projects about wave structure, properties, and the relationship between speed, frequency, and wavelength (λ). Includes two complete wavelengths, a long slot for students to draw up and down while moving across the page to get a tactile experience for what different wavelengths and frequencies 'feel' like, and as a bonus the original dots on the left and the long slot can be used to show compressions and rarefactions in compressional waves.
