Our 1st grade team decided it was the perfect opportunity to integrate our science arts and music curriculum with a two week unit.
Light and sound lesson plans for 1st grade.
Light and sound science unit.
The sequence of lessons and suggested time frames should be regarded as a guide only.
This lesson on waves of light and sound is a first grade physical science lesson.
Light and sound during the study of light and sound waves students will develop their science skills through inquiry prediction observation exploration discussion and recording.
A first grade inquiry into light and sound waves is a unit that explores light and sound waves.
Making sound real typically our sound unit takes place in the late spring but this year our school was blessed with the opportunity to attend a christmas concert put on by the kentucky orchestra.
First grade is a very exciting year filled with curiosity and new learning opportunities.
Teacher introduction to waves.
Introduction to first grade physical science waves of light and sound next generation science standards 1 ps4 1 1 ps4 2 and 1 ps4 3.
Students will wrap up the unit combining their knowledge of sound and light.
Students experience the sound vibrations made by their own voices the light reflection in a mirror and the expansion of heated water.
Students will use this information to create a communication device.
The lessons cover multiple subject areas and objectives.
Teachers should pace lessons in accordance with the individual learning needs of their class.
I am so excited for my first unit in the 1st grade standards sound light.
Below you will find various lesson plans to help guide your instruction.
It consists of 8 lessons of approximately 60 minutes duration.
The final lesson in the sound exploration gives students a chance to see how sound moves through solids liquids gases.
This unit is aligned to the next generation science standards 1 ps4 1 1 ps4 2 1 ps4 3 and 1 ps4 4.
Our light and sound science activities have been created to develop inquiry skills to nurture little scientists who like working out why things happen and enjoy looking at the world around them.
Use tools and materials to design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance.
The introduction to the lesson should capture students attention and make connections between students prior knowledge and the new concept they will be learning.
We began by learning about how light and sound travel and how our eyes and ears work.
This physical sciences unit addresses the concepts of light and sound and how they are sensed.
The next thing you need is a comprehensive light and sound unit plan that covers it all.
