For the past couple of weeks in science, we have been working on sound and how it travels. We have science packets with all kinds of experiments and questions to explore and question with our groups. As we work with our groups Mrs. Snyder comes around and guides us in the right direction. One experiment we did with our groups was getting a small cup filled with ¼ of water and a tuning fork, struck it against the bottom of our shoe, placed the tuning fork in the water, and saw that it made a splash. Another experiment you can do to show sounds energy is cover up a container with plastic wrap and put some salt and making SUPER LOUD noise and the salt will move slightly because of the sounds energy. One other thing that we did to help us with our study of sound, is that we went out into the hall and Mrs. Snyder went into another smaller room just outside the hallway and banged a hammer against a piece of wood. This helped us with how sound echos and how sound reflects. So in conclusion, we have learned a lot about sound.
