The 11 lessons in this module introduce students to concepts related to sound, such as vibrations, pitch, sound waves, insulators and conductors of sound, and amplification. Students explore musical sound production, and design and construct musical instruments. As well, they investigate hearing safety, and noise pollution in the environment. also include activity sheets and other visuals required to implement activities.Also included:materials lists activity descriptions questioning techniques activity centre and extension ideas assessment suggestions activity sheets and visuals The module offers a detailed introduction to the Hands-On Science program (guiding principles, implementation guidelines, an overview of the skills that young students use and develop during scientific inquiry), a list of children's books and websites related to the science topics introduced, and a classroom assessment plan with record-keeping templates.
