When exploring and introducing sound, students need to understand that there are multiple aspects that work together to create sound. In this single class lesson, students work through an inquiry-based challenge to discover how sound can be manipulated and altered through these elements. By investigating how to manipulate sound, students are able to build on the idea that vibrating matter can make sound (1-PS4-1, NGSS Lead States 2013). Through this lesson, students were able to explore different instruments and experiment with the sounds that they make. Students will now be actively aware of the sounds around them and will continue to explore them.
