Problem Solving through Science! | Tuesday, 3rd period

Students arriving today would find Miguel looking cranky...er than usual.

"So until this morning I was some weird guy who was only concerned with having fun and trying to make a guitar. So, since I had no time to plan anything, that's your task today - build a musical instrument. Drum, strings, whatever - find a way to make music with something you build. Use the room to make any of the materials you need. If you're feeling really brave, you can play it for us."

"Huh." Miguel shrugged. "Okay, let's see."

"Well," said Astrid, maybe grinning faintly, "it's ensamble music. It doesn't work with just one person playing it."

Which was why she was sliding one of the small bronze drums toward him and handing over one of the mallets to play it with, looking entirely too pleased with herself. If she was going to play, someone had to play with her, otherwise it just wouldn't have the right effect.

Miguel took the mallet with a dubious look. He was a man of many talents, but music wasn't really one of them. He struck the drum once, then waited for Astrid to set up some sort of beat.
