Sound Energy

Rationale: The purpose of this lesson


is for students to review what they learned in 3rd and 4th rade about sound ener y# includin that sound is caused by vibrations# travels in waves# and can pass throu h all states of matter" %n this lesson# students will continue to e0plore the uses of sound ener y"

Objectives:

%aterials&E'ui(ment:

Science noteboo!s# mentormob slideshow# o les# tunin for!# bowl of water# uitar# flute# poster paper# colorin utensils"

The students will list and describe the uses of sound ener y in their science noteboo!s" The students will share observations about their sound investi ations on poster paper in cooperative roups"

Lesson Plan:
Students will first finish their labs from the previous day on li ht reflection# and refraction" $esults about the labs will then be discussed in whole roup"

TEKS Achieved: 56+7) 80plore the uses of ener y# includin mechanical# li ht# thermal# electrical# and sound ener y" 8L* 3687) Share information in cooperative learnin interactions"

%ntroduction:

&arm up: on the smartboard# the mentormob slideshow will be up" The students will answer their warm up 'uestion in their science noteboo!s" The warm up 'uestion will be reviewed and discussed in whole roup" %ntroduce the content objective: (escribe uses of sound ener y" (iscuss" &atch a video on the effect of sound vibrations on a non)newtonian fluid in a spea!er cone" (iscuss"

%nformation Givin : First# the vocabulary for this lesson will be frontloaded# and discussed" Sound ener y# vibrate# pitch# volume" +s these are review terms from the last , school years# students do not need to record the definitions in their science journals" (iscussion will activate bac! round !nowled e about sound ener y" -odelin : To further cement the concept of sound ener y and the related vocabulary# a few demonstrations will be done" .se a tunin for! and a bowl of water to create and show sound vibrations" Stri!e the tunin for! and allow the students to listen to it first" Then# stri!e the tunin for! a ain# and place it in the bowl of water" (iscuss with the students what they see# and what it means" /e0t# have the student who brou ht a uitar play on the instrument" (iscuss how the strin s vibrate# and the pitch and volume of the instrument" 1ou can alter this area of the lesson# and have students brin in any instrument that can demonstrate with vibration# volume# and pitch" +fter students have a clear understandin of the vocabulary words applied to real life items# tell them they will be ta!in all the information they now have about sound ener y# and creatin a visual display of how sound ener y is made# and how it travels" They will wor! in their roups at their tables"

2hec! for .nderstandin : Give clear e0pectations for the visual display" %t must have how sound ener y is made# and how it travels# and they must have visual representations as well and words" They must wor! cooperatively in the roup# and all members of the roup must contribute somethin "

They will only have a ma0imum of ,5 minutes to complete this visual display# most li!ely less will be needed"

Guided *ractice: +s the students wor! in their roups to create their visual displays# wal! amon them# facilitatin where needed" They may only as! 'uestions if their roup cannot answer it amon themselves" %ndependent *ractice: +fter the visual displays are created# students will conduct a allery wal!# observe the other visual displays# and record new information in their science journals"

2losure / 2ulminatin +ctivity: =uic! write: Students will have 4 minutes to demonstrate their !nowled e of all the forms of ener y we have covered so far# 6Solar# Thermal# Li ht# Sound7" They must write as much as they can about each form of ener y in 4 minutes# and stop when time is up" ;ave students share what they wrote in whole roup"

Accommodations:
>"
Front load vocabulary# and allow students to copy into their science journals with visuals if necessary"

Enrichment&E!tension:

?e in the warm)up and vocabulary for our ne0t form of ener y: 8lectrical"

Assessment&Evaluation:

Students will be assessed not only on their completeness of their visual display# and the amount of !nowled e they demonstrated on the display# but their ability to wor! cooperatively in roups" Students@ 'uic! write answers will also be assessed" Their answers will be collected and reviewed" % will be searchin for correct and valid information# and any shortcomin s or confusion about the forms of ener y we have covered thus far for possible re)teaches"
