Focus Questions: What is frequency and What defines a wave? 
 
Students will finish this first investigation by comparing the two types of waves, completing a concept map and assessment. Then we will have a session to practice for the REACH Performance Task, which will take place at week's end. 
 
IMPORTANT DATES:  
- Investigation 1 assessment (AOL)- group A: 5/10 and group B: 5/13
- REACH Performance Task- group A: 5/16 and group B: 5/17

WEEK 33: 5/6- 5/10
 
Focus Questions: What is frequency and What defines a wave? 
 
Students will measure their pulse under different circumstances. They will use the pulse rate to calculate frequency and consider repeating patterns. Then, students will make two types of spring waves: longitudinal and transverse. They will observe wave reflection and make waves with different wavelengths, frequencies, and amplitudes. They will learn the key parts of a wave and measure and diagram a wave.
