Investigating Sounds: Identifying Vibration, Pitch, and Volume - 1 views

    • Andrew Todd
       
      Standards: 3.DS.1 - Observe and describe how sound is produced by vibrations. (3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3) Observe and describe how light travels from point to point. (3.1.4, 3.1.5, 3.1.6)

      Adaptation- Different instruments could be placed at stations throughout the room if there were not enough to pass out to everyone. Students could move table to table recording what they observe about the sound.

      Extension: This could be extended by turning it into a research project. Students could research specific instruments, then with classroom materials or materials from home, students could construct homemade instruments resembling what they researched. Knowledge of sounds waves and vibrations would be used to create working instruments.

    In this investigation, students will observe and experiment with how sounds are made. They will use various elementary music instruments as well as tuning forks, combs, rubber bands, books, bottles, etc... They will collect data on how their sounds were made in their Science journals. Following a discussion of their findings, they will generate questions about what they would like to find out about sound. They will then return to their investigations to observe how their original sounds can be changed and record this data in their journals as well. Finally, there will be another discussion to share their information.

      Expansion: Have student make predictions of what will occur to the crystals before they begin the experiment.  Have them record the results of each different type of voice.

      ESL: Doing this experiment in pairs with classmates will help reinforce English science vocabulary

    Science is fun for kids of all ages. Experiments that dazzle, models that demonstrate, and activities that fascinate are fun for children to watch and participate in. But scientific explanations are often difficult for early elementary students to grasp. By third grade, students are familiar with the scientific process, and are ready to learn the "why" behind science. Here's a quick and easy science experiment that helps to add a visual element to the science of sound. What causes sound? In this activity, your third grader will find the answer. He'll see it for himself!

      MA.2.1.12 2000 Represent compare, and interpret data using tables, tally charts, and bar graphs  MA.2.2.2 2000  Add two whole numbers less than 100 with and without regrouping  MA.3.1.1 2000  Count, read, and write whole numbers up to 1,000 Extension: The following week, students can use the board and unifix cubes for regrouping when subtracting numbers under 100 or 1000 depending on the grade level.  Adaption: Students who have trouble engaging the activity, can perform the same task through a computer program.  This may hold the students attention longer and allow them to focus because they are working indivdually and away from a group (for those that get distracted by others easily) and the students other senses (sound, and touch)  are engaged when on the computer allowing for more opportunities to understand and engage in the lesson.
