As part of their study of sound waves in the eighth grade science classes, students built improvised sound-dampening booths using a limited set of materials. They were forced to choose the materials that they thought would best dampen sound based on their theoretical knowledge. They then designed a booth and were forced to review measuring skills because of the limited materials. Finally, they partnered with the music teachers at Simpson to test the sound dampening abilities of their sound booths by using a decimeter to measure the volume of various instruments and noises inside and outside of their sound booths.
