Activity 1: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Clebear's Class Waves

Have you ever wondered how submarines can move within the sea? How are phone calls made? How does a microwave work? How can the voice break a glass? How do tremors occur on the surface? You will see all this and more in a fun, practical and interactive way in Professor Clebear's class. Understand the concepts and you will be ready to test your knowledge with simple mini-games that will help you understand how waves work in our daily lives.
