Access Point Number | Access Point Title |
SC.7.P.10.In.3 | Identify that light and sound travel in wave patterns. |
SC.7.P.10.Su.3 | Recognize that sound and light travel. |
SC.7.P.10.Pa.3 | Match light and sound to their sources. |
Name | Description |
Battle of the Waves: Sound vs Light | The student will collect, analyze, and interpret data to develop an understanding of how the speeds of sound and electromagnetic waves change through different mediums. Students will simulate and construct and explanation relating to how sound and electromagnetic waves move at different speeds through different mediums. |
Wave Speed Through Different Media | Students will use dominoes to model the speed through a mechanical medium in the solid, liquid, and gas phase. |
Light Wave Interaction with Matter |
|
Wave Movement, Is it more than just Medium? | Students will discover that light waves and sound waves move at different speeds through different mediums through inquiry, observation and collaboration with peers. |
Why is the sky blue? | Students explore how light and sound waves travel in different materials. |
