Description
Do you need to teach about waves? Students will explore waves and concepts relating to waves hands-on and also through reading informational text about waves. Students will learn about amplitude and wavelength and that waves transfer energy rather than matter.
This resource includes:
- inquiry-based lessons
- four pages of informational text
- response pages
- interactive notebook flaps
- a review game with cards
- six hands-on activities
- labs on waves
- answer keys
Camille ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Extremely Satisfied
This is my favorite unit to use with waves! My students love the activities and the reading passages are super helpful since we do not have any text. Great for 4th grade science.
Standards Addressed:
NGSS 4-PS4-1. Develop a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength and that waves can cause objects to move.
NGSS 4-PS3-2.
Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents.
This resource also covers Utah SEEd standards.
Standard 4.3.1 Develop and use a model to describe the regular patterns of waves. Emphasize patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength. Examples of models could include diagrams, analogies, and physical models such as water or rope. (PS4.A)
Also Arizona Science Standards
3.P2U1.2 Plan and carry out an investigation to explore how sound waves affect objects at varying distances. Waves
3.P4U1.3 Develop and use models to describe how light and sound waves transfer energy. Waves
