Teacherrsquos PageTeachers I hope you find this Webquest to be engaging and educational for your students I have worked hard to make sure that each person in this Webquest has been equally covered and that the activities the students are asked to complete are on the same level as their peers
I have adapted the process of getting everything done for this magazine into centers which I hope you will find helpful This could be used in the case that your class doesnrsquot have a lot of computer access or if your class is already being run with centers involved Feel free to take the centers out if you please The rotation schedule is on the next slide The center rotation is based on having 5 groups of about 4 students per group Each block is set up into one hour blocks that will be rotated in 30-minute increments This allows each group to rotate through the different stations and computers The last 30-minute block on Thursday has also been made a make-up (mu) day This will be used to complete work that wasnrsquot finished in the week due to absences or having to rotate stations
I have also attached the rubric that I will be using with my students to evaluate their work on the magazine

I have adapted the process of getting everything done for this magazine into centers which I hope you will find helpful This could be used in the case that your class doesnrsquot have a lot of computer access or if your class is already being run with centers involved Feel free to take the centers out if you please The rotation schedule is on the next slide The center rotation is based on having 5 groups of about 4 students per group Each block is set up into one hour blocks that will be rotated in 30-minute increments This allows each group to rotate through the different stations and computers The last 30-minute block on Thursday has also been made a make-up (mu) day This will be used to complete work that wasnrsquot finished in the week due to absences or having to rotate stations
I have also attached the rubric that I will be using with my students to evaluate their work on the magazine

Teacherrsquos PageTeachers I hope you find this Webquest to be engaging and educational for your students I have worked hard to make sure that each person in this Webquest has been equally covered and that the activities the students are asked to complete are on the same level as their peers
I have adapted the process of getting everything done for this magazine into centers which I hope you will find helpful This could be used in the case that your class doesnrsquot have a lot of computer access or if your class is already being run with centers involved Feel free to take the centers out if you please The rotation schedule is on the next slide The center rotation is based on having 5 groups of about 4 students per group Each block is set up into one hour blocks that will be rotated in 30-minute increments This allows each group to rotate through the different stations and computers The last 30-minute block on Thursday has also been made a make-up (mu) day This will be used to complete work that wasnrsquot finished in the week due to absences or having to rotate stations
I have also attached the rubric that I will be using with my students to evaluate their work on the magazine

Can You Hear Me Now Good
Have you ever wondered how all the different sounds in the world are made How are you able to hear someone talk to you on the phone What is a sound anyway
A sound is a wave of vibration that spreads from its source Vibration is the back-and-forth movement of an object The particles that are vibrating move closer and further away from each other in a pattern When particles are very close together this is called a crest The distance between crests is called a wavelength
One part of sound is frequency Frequency is how fast the particles are vibrating The greater the frequency the higher the pitch of the sound
The reasons that some sounds are louder than another is due to the amount of energy that they have running through them Sound is measured in units called decibels

Can You Hear Me Now Good
Have you ever wondered how all the different sounds in the world are made How are you able to hear someone talk to you on the phone What is a sound anyway
A sound is a wave of vibration that spreads from its source Vibration is the back-and-forth movement of an object The particles that are vibrating move closer and further away from each other in a pattern When particles are very close together this is called a crest The distance between crests is called a wavelength
One part of sound is frequency Frequency is how fast the particles are vibrating The greater the frequency the higher the pitch of the sound
The reasons that some sounds are louder than another is due to the amount of energy that they have running through them Sound is measured in units called decibels

Can You Hear Me Now Good
Have you ever wondered how all the different sounds in the world are made How are you able to hear someone talk to you on the phone What is a sound anyway
A sound is a wave of vibration that spreads from its source Vibration is the back-and-forth movement of an object The particles that are vibrating move closer and further away from each other in a pattern When particles are very close together this is called a crest The distance between crests is called a wavelength
One part of sound is frequency Frequency is how fast the particles are vibrating The greater the frequency the higher the pitch of the sound
The reasons that some sounds are louder than another is due to the amount of energy that they have running through them Sound is measured in units called decibels

Can You Hear Me Now Good
Have you ever wondered how all the different sounds in the world are made How are you able to hear someone talk to you on the phone What is a sound anyway
A sound is a wave of vibration that spreads from its source Vibration is the back-and-forth movement of an object The particles that are vibrating move closer and further away from each other in a pattern When particles are very close together this is called a crest The distance between crests is called a wavelength
One part of sound is frequency Frequency is how fast the particles are vibrating The greater the frequency the higher the pitch of the sound
The reasons that some sounds are louder than another is due to the amount of energy that they have running through them Sound is measured in units called decibels

Can You Hear Me Now Good
Have you ever wondered how all the different sounds in the world are made How are you able to hear someone talk to you on the phone What is a sound anyway
A sound is a wave of vibration that spreads from its source Vibration is the back-and-forth movement of an object The particles that are vibrating move closer and further away from each other in a pattern When particles are very close together this is called a crest The distance between crests is called a wavelength
One part of sound is frequency Frequency is how fast the particles are vibrating The greater the frequency the higher the pitch of the sound
The reasons that some sounds are louder than another is due to the amount of energy that they have running through them Sound is measured in units called decibels

Can You Hear Me Now Good
Have you ever wondered how all the different sounds in the world are made How are you able to hear someone talk to you on the phone What is a sound anyway
A sound is a wave of vibration that spreads from its source Vibration is the back-and-forth movement of an object The particles that are vibrating move closer and further away from each other in a pattern When particles are very close together this is called a crest The distance between crests is called a wavelength
One part of sound is frequency Frequency is how fast the particles are vibrating The greater the frequency the higher the pitch of the sound
The reasons that some sounds are louder than another is due to the amount of energy that they have running through them Sound is measured in units called decibels
