We have some great lessons on sound and light for kids! Also, we have shared a bunch of easy Science experiments for kids as we go. We will discuss what sound and light are as well as the difference between sound waves and light waves.
When studying light and sound energy, one concept students need to know is how we use light and sound to communicate. I bet you might even do it in your classroom! Do you use a special sound throughout the day to communicate something to your students? For example, do you clap to get their attention
Make a simple guitar and set up fun and easy sound science experiments for kids. How do sounds sound different in different rooms.
Hey everyone!!! I hope everyone is having a great start to the NEW YEAR! It's always great to have a fresh start and a clean slate. (Although, is it just me or does your new year always begin in August?) : ) One of the things that I have been working on during my winter break is our lesson plans in science. By the way, we have a brand new standard this year in science!! (AND new standards are always exciting!) Drum roll...our new standard is... LIGHTS AND SHADOWS!! I know...so fun...kind of...except...I have never taught light and shadows, EVER!!! (Confession is good for the soul.) I mean, I have always taught first grade standards, AND light and shadows have never been one of our standards until now. So I definitely had to share what I learned with my first grade friends!! YOU! I have a lot of ideas, freebies, and links that you might be able to use, too. This blog post is part one of two...so hang tight...shadows will be coming next week!! We are going to launch our unit with Oscar and the Moth by Geoff Waring. He has a great collection of easy to understand books on science. This particular book is about light and shadows. Oscar the cat and his new friend the moth set out on a little journey to learn about shadows and light. Isn't Oscar a cutie? Light is energy and it makes objects visible and without it, we cannot see anything! So we are going to first discuss the kinds of light that we find in our world and list them by two categories: natural light and artificial light! We are going to use an anchor chart just like The Lesson Plan Diva's chart. Perfect! (You can check out her anchor chart by clicking on the photo above.) We are also going to be looking at all the different types of lights in real life. Would you include matches or a lighter? I am still debating. Since we don't have a real darkroom we are going to be using the restroom in our classroom. Hysterical! Just the thought of being in the restroom is going to crack my little firsties up! I am going to take them into the darkroom in groups cause my darkroom is tiny! My students who are not in the darkroom group will be working on the activity sheet below. You can find it free here! In the darkroom, I am hanging pictures of objects around the room. I want my students to see them when we shine the flashlight around the darkroom to make them visible because of light. We will discuss how light makes it possible for them to see the objects. And when I turn the flashlight off, the objects are no longer visible. (Yes...I totally expect some shrieks!! Eesh...but in the name of science, right?) In their science journals, they are going to record what they observed by drawing or writing what was visible in the darkroom. If you would like a copy of the pictures that I am going to use in my bathroom darkroom, you can find them here! We are also going to be looking at peep boxes. Have you ever used peep boxes? Kindergarten-Lessons.com is where I learned about peep boxes!! You should totally check out the website because they have some great suggestions and ideas for light and shadows! You can click here! They are not hard to make and you can easily make one for your students to see. Here is an example of one I made: Without light you can't see anything inside... But with light, you can see lots of things on the inside! I can't believe this box already had a peep hole!!!!! My students are going to record what they see inside the peep boxes in their science journals. You can find the scene that I used for my peep box here. It's so fun and exciting to look inside!!! I will be working on another one this week and I will let you know how it goes!! What kind of activities do you do for light and shadows? I am dying to know!! For the second part of our light and shadow unit, we will be talking about shadows and shadows will go along perfectly with Groundhog's Day. Yeah!! So come on back! I can't wait to show you what we are doing with shadows! Hoping you have a great week back!! An InLinkz Link-up

Capture the essence of the Scottish seaside right within your living space with this enchanting print, evoking the tumultuous and haunting beauty of the Sound of Iona. Observed through a lens of Art Nouveau influence, the artwork offers a mesmerizing portrayal of nature's raw power and elegance. Billowing whitecaps and frothing waves crash against a series of jagged rocks, displaying a vivid contrast of motion and stability. The sea, painted in swirling shades of deep blue and white, churns with energy, drawing the eye to the whirlpools of colour suggesting the sea's unrelenting movement. Overhead, the tempestuous sky, rendered in tones of slate grey and muted blue, intensifies the atmosphere with a sense of an impending storm. This dynamic sky-scape looms over the cove, its heavy palette hinting at the weight of the Scottish sky, often filled with drama and unpredictability. The rocky cove itself is depicted with an intuitive understanding of the rugged textures that characterise Scotland's coast, with the interplay of light and dark accentuating the forms shaped by centuries of wind and waves. A lighthouse stands silently in the distance, a solitary sentinel amidst the wild, undulating waters, suggesting mankind's small but steadfast presence within the vast natural world. The intricate linework and stylised contours typical of Art Nouveau lend this piece an alluring and timeless quality, making it a perfect addition to any space that seeks to incorporate elements of nature, history, and artistry with a particular nod to Scottish landscapes and the lore of its captivating coves.
