Electromagnetic Spectrum Poster Project

In this lesson, students conduct a brief review on frequency and wavelengh. Students are then assigned a specific region of the Eectromagnetic Spectrum to research in small groups. Posters representing their assigned region are created following specific guidelines. Posters will include frequency, wavelength, energy level and appplications of their assigned radiation. Students will then display their posters during a class gallery walk with guiding questions. This allows students to compare the research they conducted with that of fellow classmates.
