Lesson about sound waves of high and low sounds. Students learn through a website, activites with rope, rulers and rubber bands on cups, and with Audacity software. Lesson is written for early elementary music students but could also be...

Students explore how sound waves move through liquids, solids and gases in a series of simple sound energy experiments. Understanding the properties of sound and how sound waves travel helps engineers determine the best room shape and...

Sound! How does it work? All you need to know about it is found here through a series of Q&As. Educators will find useful lesson plans.

To further their understanding of sound energy, students identify the different pitches and frequencies created by a vibrating ruler and a straw kazoo. They create high- and low-pitch sound waves.

This document will give you "extra" information and opportunities to build your understanding of sound so that you can be better prepared to facilitate the sound lessons with your students.

Great activity for primary and intermediate students to learn why objects make noise. This can be organized in stations or in groups of students.

Young scholars are introduced to sound energy concepts and how engineers use sound energy. Through hands-on activities and demonstrations, students examine how we know sound exists by listening to and seeing sound waves. They learn to...

Explore the science of sound and the human ear, and explain how this applies to the operation of cochlear implants for the deaf. Observe how structures can be "tuned" to respond to different frequencies.

An informative site that deals with the parts of the ear and their functions. Text is complemented with pictures.
