SCIENCE 6TH GRADE MRS. MARITES L. DE LUNA October 7-11, 2013 Wave Properties
Quick questions : Monday • 1. The property of matter which is mass/volume is ___________. • 2. The space occupied by matter is called _________. • 3. When heat is added to atoms, they come very close together. (T/F) • 4. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. (T/F) • 5. When heat is added to water, it turns into vapor. (yes/no)
Goals : 6.P.1.1 (Essential Standard) • By the end of the week, I can : • 1. tell what a wave is. • 2. describe the properties of waves • 3. identify the parts of a wave • 4. compare and contrast the various types of waves namely earthquake, light and sound. • 5. compare and contrast longitudinal from transverse waves
HOMEWORK (WEEK OF October 7-11,2013) • 1. What is a wave? • 2. What are the properties of a wave? • 3. How is energy like a wave? • 4. Describe an earthquake wave. • 5. Compare and contrast a sound wave from a light wave.
Vocabulary word : Monday • Wave - are moving energy and it transmits energy not matter. Nearly all waves travel through matter. • Sentence. Waves are created when a force creates a vibration. • Your turn!
NEW CONCEPT : WAVE links • http://app.discoveryeducation.com/player/view/assetGuid/9ceb0343-3195-4287-a429-03195d87241d • http://app.discoveryeducation.com/player/view/assetGuid/9b45e5f6-37ab-4e3d-99dd-8d298b33d62f • http://www.ck12.org/book/CK-12-Physical-Science-For-Middle-School/r1/section/18.1/
Vocabulary Word : Tuesday Sound - is a form of energy that results when vibrating materials produce waves that move through matter. Sentence. Sound waves are longitudinal waves. Your turn!
Longitudinal and transverse waves • http://www.acs.psu.edu/drussell/demos/waves/wavemotion.html
PROPERTIES OF LONGITUDINAL WAVES • amplitude, rarefaction, and compression. • A region where the coils are pressed together in a small amount of space is known as a compression. A compression is a point on a medium through which a longitudinal wave is traveling that has the maximum density. • A region where the coils are spread apart, thus maximizing the distance between coils, is known as a rarefaction. A rarefaction is a point on a medium through which a longitudinal wave is traveling that has the minimum density.
Vocabulary Word : Wednesday • Light - are transverse waves Sentence. Light waves are unique in their ability to travel through a vacuum (space).
Vocabulary Word : Thursday • Earthquakes - are vibrations in the earth that release the (potential) energy stored in rocks (due to their relative positions and consequent pressure). • Sentence. Earthquakes create seismic waves.
INTERESTING IDEA • SCIENCE MAGIC/TRICK
REVIEW/PREVIEW • PROCESSES INVOLVED IN THE CHANGES IN THE STATES OF MATTER • REVIEW QUESTIONS FROM THE UNIT TEST
New Concept : Monday • All waves transmit energy not matter. Nearly all waves travel through matter. Waves are created when a source (force) creates a vibration. Vibrations in materials set up wavelike disturbances that spread away from the source. Wave behavior can be described in terms of how fast the disturbance spreads, and in terms of the distance between successive peaks of the disturbance (the wavelength).
New Concept : Tuesday • Sound and earthquake waves are examples. These and other waves move at different speeds in different materials. Waves are moving energy. Light waves are unique in their ability to travel through a vacuum (space). Sound is a form of energy that results when vibrating materials produce waves that move through matter.
New Concept : Wednesday • Earthquakes are vibrations in the earth that release the (potential) energy stored in rocks (due to their relative positions and consequent pressure). Earthquakes create seismic waves. Compare sound waves (longitudinal waves) to light waves (transverse waves).
New Concept : Thursday • Energy will cause materials to vibrate. These vibrations are carried as "waves" and transfer energy. The basic characteristics of a transverse wave: trough, crest, amplitude, and wavelength. Identify the basic characteristics of a longitudinal (compression) wave: amplitude, rarefaction, and compression.
LEARNING CENTERS • 1 & 2 – Vocabulary Center • 3 & 4 – Catch a Wave • 5 & 6 – Science Literacy Center • Students, make sure that by Thursday, you have visited all learning centers.
VOCABULARY CENTER • IMPORTANT VOCABULARY WORDS ARE GIVEN. YOU ARE ASKED TO MAKE SURE ALL THOSE WORDS ARE IN YOUR SCIENCE NOTEBOOK/JOURNAL. • YOU ARE TO QUIZ EACH MEMBER OF YOUR LEARNING CENTER TO PREPARE YOU FOR YOUR UNIT TEST THIS COMING FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2013.
SCIENCE LITERACY CENTER • A Science text related to the essential goals will be given to you. As a group, answer the following comprehension questions. • 1. What is the main idea of the text? • 2. Describe how the various states of matter move when exposed to heat and cold temperature. • 3. If you were to change the title of the text, what would it be and why?
EXPECTATIONS FOR LEARNING CENTERS • All groups should work cooperatively and harmoniously with each other. • Each member of the group should contribute to the assigned project/experiment. • Answer all analysis questions at the back of the paper • MAKE SURE THAT YOUR GROUP will work AS QUIETLY as possible. You are allowed to communicate but lower your tone so as not to disturb others. • No group hopping. Just stay with your group!
POST LAB DISCUSSION • DISCUSS AND SHARE VARIOUS GROUP RESULTS • ANSWER THE ANALYSIS QUESTIONS
Recording data (Mondays) • Test scores will be distributed. • Test scores will be recorded by both teacher and students. • Students will use a data sheet that will be given by the teacher to track their scores on every test, homework, classwork, laboratory work submitted in class. • Students will learn how to track down their progress in the Science class.
