Description

For this STEM Challenge, students learn about the history of sound effects in live theater, radio, and television. Next, they experiment with everyday objects to create 7 different sounds (a rolling sound, a jumping sound, thunder, rain, etc.) Finally, they read the included story aloud, inserting their sound effects when prompted. This high interest lab is the perfect addition to your sound energy science unit.

This resource includes:

  • teacher directions with suggestions, discussion questions, and extension ideas
  • 6 slides of background information about the history of sound effects, how and why they were created
  • 5 slides setting up the challenge with student directions and photographs
  • a student response worksheet
  • a printable story called "Frog Goes to Market" that prompts students to create sound effects as they read aloud
  • a scoring rubric
  • a digital (projectable) version of the story for whole group sharing (11 slides with lots of illustrations)
  • a force copy link to a digital Google Slides version

Your students will love this simple but challenging STEM activity that combines history, art, science, reading, and engineering. You will love that it requires minimal prep time and very few materials!

NGSSMS-PS4-2
Develop and use a model to describe that waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials. Emphasis is on both light and mechanical waves. Examples of models could include drawings, simulations, and written descriptions. Assessment is limited to qualitative applications pertaining to light and mechanical waves.
NGSS4-PS3-2
Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents. Assessment does not include quantitative measurements of energy.
