The Phenomenon of Sound: Waves
Students explore sound waves. In this sound waves activity, students brainstorm different sounds and how sounds move or travel. Students then create a KWL chart and work through six different lab activities to examine how sound waves...
Curated OER
Sound Portraits
Students observe a variety of sounds which can be heard within their schoolyard habitat by sitting quietly by themselves for five minutes, listening, and then recording the sounds around them by drawing them.
Curated OER
Listening Devices
Students design and construct a listening device that will allow them to listen to the sound generated by specific object inside a box.
Curated OER
Strange Sounds
Students investigate sound as a form of energy. In this energy, forces, and sound lesson plan, students explore how different sounds may be made as they make a variety of materials vibrate. Students observe the effects of vibrations and...

The Science of Sound
In this explanation of sound worksheet, students discover what sound is, how different sounds are made, frequency, how sound travels, how we hear, and a summarization. In this physical science worksheet, students answer ten comprehension...
Curated OER
Sound
Students identify sources and importance of sound, discuss sounds heard on way to school, explain why sound waves can be "seen", and participate in various classroom activities and experiments that illustrate how sound travels.
Curated OER
Sound: What is Sound and how does it travel?
Learners learn that vibration makes different types of sounds. In this sound lesson, students perform experiments to understand vibrations and high and low pitch sounds. Learners learn that sound travels differently through different...
Curated OER
Making Sounds
Students perform three experiments to gain understanding of how pitch changes. For this sound lesson, students create a variety of sounds with different pitches. Students will record their data as the observe the differences in the...
Curated OER
Sounds Like Science- Bottle Organ
Learners investigate the relationship between pitches and notes. In this musical pitches and notes lesson plan, students use different sized bottles, water, and sugar to demonstrate different sounds. Learners create musical notes.
Curated OER
Directing Sound Waves
Learners learn that sound waves can be directed and collected. In this sound wave experiment, students create and collect sound waves. Learners learn sound waves travel differently through different states of matter.
Curated OER
TE Activity: Sound Line
Students investigate the decibel readings of various noises. They determine why high-level readings damage hearing. Students arrange sound from the lowest to highest decibel levels when they written on a piece of paper.
Curated OER
Sound/Pitch
Students explore how pitch changes when using instruments that are plucked, blown, and hit. In this sound and pitch lesson, students blow across the top of bottles that are filled with water to create sound. Students use recorders...
Perkins School for the Blind
Learning to Identify Sounds Made by the Body
Sneeze, snap, tap, and whistle; Did I do that? Explore the parts and sounds of the human body with your learners with visual impairments. First you'll name the parts of the body, make a sound with each part, and then have the class guess...
Curated OER
A Whale of a Story
Does sound travel faster in water or in the air? Put the question to the test with a science experiment. After reviewing a table of data, third and fourth graders decide which statements are true and which ones are false. The bottom of...
