Monster
Trucks &
Sound Waves

        We are doing a section on sound waves in 7th grade science. We asked the Deleon family to bring in their Monster Truck to demonstrate powerful sounds waves.  The kids could feel the sound of the engine in their ribs!  It was so cool!  Mr. Deleon mentioned that the engine produces 600 horsepower----which is 2 times the amount our normal cars produce.  It was such a treat for them to bring in this very awesome example of SOUND WAVES!! 

 Mr. Deleon even drove it around the circle for us and thankfully resisted squishing Mr. Brandis’s truck!   It truly brought a huge smile to everyone’s face.  Also, some of the 7th graders hopped in the back of the truck for a picture and the 4th graders then took a turn in the back.
