Curriculum Alignment +

Aligned to Year 4 Science — Sound. Covers identifying how sounds are made, associating them with something vibrating, recognising that vibrations from sounds travel through a medium to the ear, and finding patterns between the volume of a sound and the strength of the vibrations.

Teaching Tips +

Begin with the Sound Walk outdoors to activate prior knowledge before moving into classroom investigations. Seeing Sound with salt and a speaker is a memorable demonstration — do it as a whole class first. Works best alongside the Exploring Pitch & Volume pack as a full sound unit.
