Start with a vibrating ruler and finish with a hidden seabed! This KS3 Sound and Waves bundle takes pupils from the sounds they can hear to the waves they can model, measure and explain.

Six complete lessons for ages 11–14:

  1. Pitch, loudness and vibrations
  2. How vibrations travel
  3. Line graphs and scatter graphs
  4. Ears, microphones and hearing
  5. Echoes, ultrasound and sonar
  6. Comparing waves and pulses

Each lesson includes its editable PowerPoint, a lesson plan, a suggested practical or model investigation, and relevant pupil activities with checked teacher answers. The six lessons provide 23 separate files: 6 PowerPoints, 6 Word documents and 11 PDFs.

Also included is the free Sound and Waves topic roadmap, in editable Word and print-ready PDF formats. It sets out the lesson sequence, learning goals and preparation overview; it is also available separately at no charge.

New illustrated opening slides and document covers introduce each theme without giving the lesson away. Full teaching plans, practical instructions and answers are in the lesson downloads.

The six individual lessons cost £6 in total. This bundle is £3 — a 50% saving. The free roadmap adds no cost.
