Purpose: As students progress through secondary science they will develop an understanding of waves as a means of transferring energy. Practical science activities around the study of sound are often used as a basis for understanding features of waves such as wavelength, frequency and amplitude. Digital technology...

The Gravity Jet Suit creates a lot of noise.  This resource explains how sound waves travel and are detected by the human ear.

This resource provides a lesson plan showing how to use musical instruments to teach about sound waves. The approach used in the lesson is based on education research which is summarised in a separate research summary document.

The lesson outlines a set of activities that can be used to demonstrate that...

In this video an oscilloscope simulator on a laptop is demonstrated to visualise a sound wave and calculate its frequency. 

This resource provides a selection of lesson plans, worksheets and teachers notes relating to sound at Year Four. They include activities which show that sounds are made when objects vibrate and that sounds travel through solids, liquids and gases. They also look at the structure of the ear, how vibrations are...

The Young Scientist Investigates topic book on Sounds was first published in 1984 and gives information, illustrated by full colour photographs and drawings, about sounds heard in everyday life, how they are created, and how they vary. It describes sound as vibrations...

There’s sound and music all around us! This programme has pupils exploring the science of music and sound, creating music and instruments with a range of found objects, and even finding music in unlikely places.

The activities are introduced with a quick objective and a preparation guide. Individuals or...

'Our modern society has more ways of making sounds than ever before. How can we control sound to get good quality when we want it and cut out the sounds we don't want to hear?'

These practicals and videos use a workplace context to develop students' understanding of the properties of sound, and how science...

Five activity sheets produced by Institute of Physics (IOP) to accompany the MODEL Project's Sounds Good video.

Worksheet one takes an overview of the topic. Worksheets two - five are targeted at specific sections of the video.

Answers to all the worksheet questions are provided in the Word document...

Four groups of practicals, produced by Institute of Physics (IOP), which help students to understand the properties of sound.

In addition to the guidance included for specific activities, please refer to the generic health and safety information before commencing any practical activity.
