Sound waves are vibrations in your ear, gather 'round and you will hear!

Hi Room 203 families,

We are currently studying the Science of Sound through Dr. Bob Moog's Sound School . Students are learning about where sound comes from, how sound is made, and much more--all through hands-on learning and experimentation. As our Sound School unit comes to an end, students had the opportunity to write songs about sound using vocabulary, observation notes, and other information from their Scientist Notebooks. First we chose a beat, using the Vocabulary Implementation section of Flocabulary. Next, we determined the key concepts that we've learned so far about sound and brainstormed rhyming words. Finally, students worked collaboratively in their groups to write their songs, which are performed in the awesome video below. I am so proud! Enjoy :)

Want even more Sound School? Join Claxton Second Grade students at  THE ORANGE PEEL (yes, these kids are superstars!) on April 1st at 10 a.m. All friends and family are welcome! Hope to see you there. :)
