The goal of this module is to learn about the production of musical sounds through the vibrations in stringed instruments. The module is expected to take place over approximately 4 class periods.

This is a lesson that allows students to investigate sound waves moving from one place to another. By using simple materials, students can have significant influence on large-scale variables of

In this engaging lesson, students will explore sound waves and how distance is a factor in the intensity of the sound.

Students will be creating their own testing station for sound waves! Each group will get 5 glasses and will put a different amount of water in each of the glasses. Then the students will tap the glass
