We have been learning about different kinds of ENERGY in science class. The students got to see first hand how sound carries energy...and the proof was in the salt!!
At first, some students did not believe that they could actually move something with only the energy of sound (without touching or blowing)! We had a variety of predictions.
They were surprised to find how strong the vibrations were that made the salt dance off of the cup!
They also experimented with the distance as well. How close did they have to be to see the salt move?
What was the farthest distance they could be for the sound energy to reach the cup?
We also took some time today to quiz each other on the vocabulary for this chapter. They did a great job challenging one another, and helping their partner get the answers right.
I'm proud of all of you!!
