Now try the challenge:
Science – I have a challenge for you this week! We have been learning all about sound and how it travels. We know that sound is caused by a movement which causes the air molecules to vibrate. We can represent sounds by drawing them in waves.
The taller the wave, the louder the sound.
The shorter the wave, the quieter the sound.
The closer together the waves, the higher the sound.
The further apart the waves, the lower the sound.
Have a look at the sound waves below and see if you can describe what the sound would be like. I have done the first one to help you.
Have a great day! Enjoy the sunshine but remember to stay safe and drink lots of water!
