A science experiment which explores how sound travels.
Sounds are vibrations that travel through the air to our ears. We know that light travels in a straight line, but what about sound?
Use this Science experiment when exploring the physical science of sound.
Students follow the scientific method to conduct the experiment in small groups, then complete the worksheet provided.
Light and sound are produced by a range of sources and can be sensed
Science involves observing, asking questions about, and describing changes in, objects and events
Use a range of methods to sort information, including drawings and provided tables and through discussion, compare observations with predictions
Compare observations with those of others
Represent and communicate observations and ideas in a variety of ways
Observes, questions and collects data to communicate and compare ideas
