| Last year, my science fair project was called Slapshot. It used sound to calculate the velocity of a speeding puck. I won a gold medal at the 2005 Simcoe County science fair for that project. I was once again attracted to completing a science project that included sound. I have always enjoyed playing many instruments including the bass guitar, so I decided to make my project about bass amplifiers. I am looking forward to this experience at my first National Science Fair. I have always wanted to enjoy a career with musical instruments when I'm older, so this is a good place to get my ideas running. Other accomplishments: School Winner of Canadian Open math challange, Curently studying piano at a grade 5 conservatory level, |
