It covers two topics:

Waves
Information Transfer

Included are mini books, hands on science activities, non-fiction passages, practice pages, interactive notebook pages, and much more! Download the 27 page preview to see what's included in this 90 page resource!

Standards

NGSS4-PS4-1

Develop a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength and that waves can cause objects to move. Examples of models could include diagrams, analogies, and physical models using wire to illustrate wavelength and amplitude of waves. Assessment does not include interference effects, electromagnetic waves, non-periodic waves, or quantitative models of amplitude and wavelength.

NGSS4-PS4-3

Generate and compare multiple solutions that use patterns to transfer information. Examples of solutions could include drums sending coded information through sound waves, using a grid of 1’s and 0’s representing black and white to send information about a picture, and using Morse code to send text.
