Science Class
Slide 2
List 5 observations can you make by looking at this picture?
Warm updraw this picture in your notebook
Slide 3
Volunteers to share with the class
Slide 4
An object splashed into the water, creating 11 waves The water
appears to be moving The waves are moving out from 1 center circle
The rings look bigger as you move out from the center The waves
appear to be equally spaced apart I can infer an object was thrown
into the water; the object sank because it was more dense than the
water My observations.
Slide 5
Review Test. Take your test home and get it signed for 5 extra
points This must be returned to me Monday to receive these 5
points
Slide 6
Interactive notebook Find the next blank page in your notebook
We are starting our next unit label the page 6.P.1.1 Forces and
Motion (introduction to waves) Add this to your table of contents
Where is this standard in our classroom?
Slide 7
6.P.1.1 Forces and Motion Our next objective: Compare the
properties of waves to the wavelike property of energy in
earthquakes, light and sound (we are going to investigate (how
energy travels in seismic waves (earthquakes), light waves and
sound waves)
Slide 8
Vocabulary Waves Demonstrate to the class: Label page Go to the
next empty page in your notebook Draw a line vertically through the
center of the page (demo) Draw 2 lines horizontally across the page
Now repeat this on another empty page in your notebook On these 2
pages in your notebook, you should have 12 equally spaced
boxes!
Slide 9
Number your boxes Beginning on the first page, number from 1-6
On the next page, number from 7-12
Slide 10
Rotation around the room You will count off from 1 -12 You will
start in the station that matches the number you counted off You
will have 18 minutes to rotate around the room to record all 12
vocabulary words Rotate at your own pace but remember if you are
not finished will have to visit the wiki page for homework to get
any remaining definitions GO!
Slide 11
Wave Video Discovery Ed: The Basics: Waves, Light and
Sound
Slide 12
Wave Characteristics Waves are moving energy All waves transmit
energy, but not matter, from one place to another. Waves move at
different speeds Waves move through different materials known as
mediums Write EVERYTHING on this slide
Slide 13
Vibrations Waves are created when a force creates a vibration
These vibrations transfer or spread the energy away from the force
Write EVERYTHING on this slide
Slide 14
Our Discussion Image: In the image: What is the medium? The
water What do you think caused this vibration force? A rock
splashing into water
Slide 15
Waves, Energy and Vibrations Energy will cause materials to
vibrate(move back and forth); the energy moves along in a wave-like
manner Write EVERYTHING on this slide
Slide 16
Wave Videos Brain Pop: Waves
Slide 17
Wave Behavior Described by how fast the energy moves or spreads
out The distance between each wave (wavelength) How do you think a
wave with lots of energy will travel? Fast or slow and why? Write
EVERYTHING on this slide
Slide 18
Wave Categories 2 Basic Categories of Waves: Mechanical Waves:
requires a medium in which to move the energy along (add these
examples to your vocabulary word: ocean, seismic, sound, and slinky
waves) Electromagnetic Waves: does not require a medium (can travel
through empty space known as a vacuum = area of no matter) (add
these examples to your vocabulary word: light and radio waves)
Write EVERYTHING on this slide
Slide 19
Homework Make some Waves worksheet Due Monday (use your
vocabulary words to help you answer the questions All questions
must be answered in complete sentences
Slide 20
Vocabulary Waves- a way that different types of energy can
travel. Medium- a substance or material that carries the wave
Matter- anything that has mass and takes up space Write EVERYTHING
on this slide in your foldable boxes
Slide 21
Vocabulary Energy- the ability to do work. Mechanical wave-
requires a medium through which to travel. Write EVERYTHING on this
slide in your foldable boxes
Slide 22
Vocabulary Transverse wave- a wave in which the particles of
the medium move perpendicular (or right angled) to the direction of
energy flow (example = light waves and surface ocean waves)
Longitudinal wave- a wave in which the particles of the medium move
parallel (back and forth) along the direction of energy flow
(example = sound wave) Write EVERYTHING on this slide in your
foldable boxes
Slide 23
Vocabulary Trough- the bottom or lowest part of a wave, which
happens every wavelength. Crest- the top or peak of a wave., which
occurs every wavelength. Wavelength- the space between two
identical parts of a wave (from a crest to a crest, or a trough to
a trough; the length of ONLY 1 wave) Write EVERYTHING on this slide
in your foldable boxes
Slide 24
Vocabulary Amplitude- the height of the wave. This can be
measured vertically from crest to the rest position or rest
position to trough. Frequency- the number of time a wave passes a
point in one second Write EVERYTHING on this slide in your foldable
boxes
Slide 25
Warm Up Write this in your notebook on a blank page Predict how
you could make a slinky move similar to a wave you may have seen in
the ocean Remember, its a prediction..
