Influence of Waves, Grade 1

Stem Road Map for Elementary School

Beschreibung

"What if you could challenge your first graders to create instruments they can play in their own "Show Me the Waves" musical show? Influence of Waves introduces children to the concept of waves as disturbances that travel through space and substances to transfer energy. With this module, your students will conduct a variety of investigations using science as well as English language arts, mathematics, and social studies. Along the way, they'll discover that different types of waves, such as water and sound, come from different sources and travel in various ways. They'll find out that eyes, ears, and skin respond to sound and light. Then they'll finish the module with a bang! By combining their voices and flashlights with guitars and drums they've made themselves, they'll put on a show to demonstrate how to use sound waves and light to communicate and entertain"--
