Quiet Please! A Noise Pollution Activity
Students conduct an activity to determine the most effective way to control noise using shoe boxes and sound-absorbing materials. In groups, students will use one of 8 materials assigned by the teacher to sound-proof the inside of a shoebox. They will place a timer inside the box and test how far away the ringing can be heard, record the results, and then graph the data gathered.

Daily Starter The PERIODIC TABLE- PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Distribute daily starter to students on Monday. Students will complete the assignment during the first 10 min of class on a daily basis, Monday –Thursday.
