Design Your Own Experiment: Waves + Communication | Morse Code Light Signals
Give students real ownership of the scientific process with this Inquiry Learning Experiment Design Project Prompt. Instead of following a step-by-step lab, students design their own experiment using classroom materials you already have. With structured thinking prompts (but plenty of creative freedom), students plan an investigation that demonstrates the skills they’ve been learning, then write and reflect on what happened, even if their results are messy or their experiment “fails.” This re
