sound!
DO: Pick up euphonium
SAY: If I were to play a LOW note the sound
waves will be slow and far apart because the
speed of the air that I am blowing is slow!
DO: Play low note of euphonium
SAY: So this is what the sound wave would
look like!
DO: Draw on SMART board what low pitch
waves look like
ASK: SO, If I were to play a high note, the
sound waves will be?

ANSWER IS FAST AND CLOSE
TOGETHER
DO: Play a high note on euphonium
DO: Draw on SMART board what fast pitch
waves look like
SAY: For my euphonium, the differences in
combination of the vibration of my lips and
the air is what will give me different pitches!
Which means, different sound waves!
SAY: Again, sound is the cause of vibrations
bouncing off objects! Different vibrations are
from different sounds!
