Quest 3: Behavior of Waves Lab Stations

It is important to note that Quest 3 Posts 1 - 5 is completing just 1 assignment in Google Classroom. The Behavior of Waves Labs is one document. The document is broken up into stations. Each station is a post in the quest. You will check in with Mrs. Roehm after each post, but she will not sign anything until the end of the Quest. (Still check in after each post though!)

Q3P1: Slinky Wave Models

1. Open the Behavior Of Waves Labs Assignment in Google Classroom.
2. Q3P1 - Q3P5 are all ONE assignment.
3. HINT: For each row, you should only mark a total of 2 X's in the first 6 columns.
4. In the 7th column, you should draw what the slinky looked like. In the 8th column, you should draw what the graph of the wave would look like. The video below will help you with what to do in Column 7 and 8: Watch this video. Just draw your pictures and graphs on a piece of paper and show it to Mrs. Roehm

4. Use the Slinkies in class to create models the types of waves listed in the chart on the first page of the lab sheet. If you feel confident you can complete this task without a slinky, that is totally fine!
5. IMPORTANT CONSTRAINT: Slinkies must remain flat on the table and may not be used if any of the bottom of the Slinky is off the table or floor.
6. Fill in the chart on the first page of the lab as you work.
If you don't understand the difference between columns 7 and 8, go ask Mrs. Roehm to explain.

Show Mrs. Roehm your completed chart. You do not need a signature yet, but you do need to show Mrs. Roehm your work. Mrs. Roehm will sign for Posts 1 - 6 when you have finished Post 6.

Q3P2: Traveling Sound

Find the Traveling Sound Section on the Behavior Of Waves Lab Assignment in Google Classroom.

If you don't understand the written directions below, you can watch this video. You don't have to watch the video. Only watch it if you don't understand the written directions below the video.

Lab Directions:
1. Wrap each end of the string around a finger on each hand about the same amount.
2. Swing the hanger so that it strikes a desk or table. Observe and describe the sound as you hear it through the air.
3. Repeat step 2 with all 3 hangers. EACH person in the group must try this. You can't hear it without doing it yourself. **If you don't hear the difference, ask Mrs. Roehm.
4. Answer the questions on your lab sheet for the "Traveling Sound" station. (This is the same document as you used from Google Classroom for the last post. It is called Behavior of Waves Labs.)

Show Mrs. Roehm your answers. You do not need a signature yet, but you do need to show Mrs. Roehm your work. Mrs. Roehm will sign for Posts 1 - 6 when you have finished Post 6.

Q3P3: Waves and Rice

Find the Waves and Rice Section on the Behavior Of Waves Lab Assignment in Google Classroom.

If you don't understand the written directions below, you can watch this video. You don't have to watch the video. Only watch it if you don't understand the written directions below the video.

BIG TIP FOR THE QUESTIONS: For the first question in Waves and Rice, the question asks for a generic line graph. If you don't want to draw a line graph or are confused about how to do that, you can just write a relationship statement instead. If you want to draw the generic line graph, you can. Otherwise, write a relationship statement instead.

Lab Directions:
1. Make sure that there is a small amount of rice on the "drum" (The container with the purple rubber on it.)
2. Hold the metal tin with one hand and the hammer with the other. You will hit the metal tin with the hammer in order to make the rice jump. There are some important tips about how you should hit the tin in order to make it work correctly:
- Clap the tin and hammer together. Don't hit the tin with the hammer. Clap them
together.
- The sound has to be pointed towards the rice. So, you will have to point the tin at the
rice.
- You have to hold the tin and hammer close to the rice drum, but not too close! You
don't want the hammer to hit the drum.
3. Watch the dancing rice!
4. Answer the lab questions on the lab sheet.
Show Mrs. Roehm your answers. You do not need a signature yet, but you do need to show Mrs. Roehm your work. Mrs. Roehm will sign for Posts 1 - 6 when you have finished Post 6.

Q3P4: Bouncing Sound

Find the Traveling Sound Section on the Behavior Of Waves Lab Assignment in Google Classroom.

If you don't understand the written directions below, you can watch this video. You don't have to watch the video. Only watch it if you don't understand the written directions below the video.

Lab Directions:
1. Take two of the tubes. Have one person hold one tube at an angle against the wall. Have the other person hold the other tube at an angle against the wall so the tubes form a "V". (The point of the "V" should be against the wall.
2. Have one person whisper into one of the tubes. Have the other person listen to the end of the other tube.
3. Use this link to find your text evidence when you get to the questions. Remember you should give the DEFINITION of the key science word from the claim. You should NOT give an example. So, "an echo is an example of reflection" is not an appropriate response for text evidence.

Show Mrs. Roehm your answers. You do not need a signature yet, but you do need to show Mrs. Roehm your work. Mrs. Roehm will sign for Posts 1 - 6 when you have finished Post 6.

Q3P5: Refraction Cells

Find the Refraction Cells Section on the Behavior Of Waves Lab Assignment in Google Classroom.

If you don't understand the written directions below, you can watch this video. You don't have to watch the video. Only watch it if you don't understand the written directions below the video.

WHEN ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS, REMEMBER: You should have text evidence (define refraction) AND Data evidence - compare data points from data table.

Click this link for the text evidence you should use (see page 2 of this document).

Lab Directions:
1. Ask Mrs. Roehm where the lab is set up in her back room.
2. Place the prisms on a white piece of paper.
3. Turn the lights off.
4. Turn on the light box. Move the light around the prisms and cells to watch the light bend in different patterns!
5. Answer the lab questions on your lab sheet for this station.
REMEMBER: You should have text evidence (define refraction) AND Data evidence - compare data points from data table.

Don't show Mrs. Roehm your work yet. She will check it after the next post.

Q3P6: CER Feedback and Edits

Before you check in your Q3P5 CER, you must use Magic School to get feedback.

Follow the directions in this document to help you.

You don't have to copy and paste the feedback that Magic School gives you anywhere. You just need to make sure you use the feedback to improve your answers.

Once you have made corrections, show Mrs. Roehm your finished CER from Q3P5. She will sign for Q3P1 - Q3P6 all at once.

Q3P7: Sound vs Light Double Bubble

Watch this video to learn how to create a Double Bubble.

Draw your own double bubble on paper that compares sound and light.
1. You must have at least 3 similarities and at least 3 point/counterpoints.
2. You may NOT use “Wave” as a similarity.
3. Remember to think about the properties of waves we have been talking about as you come up with your ideas on the Double Bubble. You could think about:
  - Transmission, Absorption, Reflection
  - Refraction
  - Frequency, Wavelength, Amplitude (definitions, graphs, etc)
  - Transverse, Longitudinal
  - Mechanical vs non mechanical (requires a medium/does not require a medium)
  - Waves transfer energy not matter

Show Mrs. Roehm your completed Double Bubble.

Q3P8: Reasses

Reassess on all of the skills on your learning target page that Mrs. Roehm gave you.

Fill out this google form to let Mrs. Roehm know what learning target is your strength and which target is your biggest challenge.

You do not need to show Mrs. Roehm. Just move on after adding your answer in the assignment.

Q3P9: EM Spectrum Activity

1. Ask Mrs. Roehm for an EM Spectrum Paper.

2. Follow the directions linked here to complete your EM Spectrum Graphic Organizer.

3. Show Mrs. Roehm your completed EM Spectrum Graphic Organizer. She will sign for Post 7 and 8 when you check in.

Q3P10: Legends of Learning

Play the Legends of Learning Assignment in Google Classroom for at least 20 minutes.

See Mrs. Roehm for a signature and a stamp.
