This massive lesson and supporting resources provide an extremely detailed account of what sound is and some of the science behind how sound propagates and travels through the air. This is a massive bundle of resources, that could easily cover at least 6 to 7 weeks worth of learning, classroom exercises and practical experiments. The main presentation has over 70 slides, with embedded YouTube videos to aid and support learning. Moreover, 3 classroom exercises. Two have additional Boom Card versions so that learners can complete outside the classroom through distance learning if required; however, all resources come as Google Slide version to down, complete and save to your own Google Drive accounts. Finally, there is really fun ‘general knowledge’ quizzes focusing upon the basics covered throughout the main lesson and last of all 2 excellent experiment worksheets for students to test out and learn about the science of sound first-hand.
