TAG first to fifth grade at two schools worked on datalogging with RCX sound sensor.

                 Students used Sound sensor on the RCX to record the sound sensor readings of a ball going through a LEGO tube structure.
                                        They broke into groups and created their own "rain stick" to make sound.
            After the program was run the sound data was uploaded and students were able to look at the graphs and see when the sound was loud and quiet.
                           The plan was to have the students be able to recognize from the graph from where the data was gathered.
                            There are sensors on Mars and not people.  But from here we can "see" what the sensors are picking up.
