Part 1 - mnemonic• Create a mnemonic to help you remember the
order of the waves of the electromagnetic spectrum (make sure it makes sense)
• A mnemonic is a device, such as a pattern of letters, that is designed to aid the memory
• Radio – Microwave – Infrared – Visible – Ultraviolet – X Ray - Gamma
• Real - Men - In - Violet – Underwear (are) EXtremely - Gorgeous

Real - Men - In - Violet – Underwear (are) EXtremely - Gorgeous
This is how you should turn your mnemonic in!

Part 2 - Story• Write a story describing the electromagnetic
spectrum
• Your story should include:
– All 7 types of electromagnetic waves
– Each type of wave must be used correctly (use is based on its characteristics)

Electromagnetic Spectrum Project – Story
Once upon a time, there was a dog whose nickname was Radio. His friends called him Radio because he never stopped talking and talking. He talked longer than anyone else with the lowest voice that could be heard. Radio’s best buddy was MW, short for microwave. MW was unique in that she only liked to eat heated food (she never ate ice cream ……
This is how you should turn your story in!

Part 3 – Color Illustration
• Draw a picture that accurately illustrates your story
• Your picture must be in color• Your illustration can be put on copy paper• No pencil!!
