Exploring Sound in Science

23rd Apr 2026

This week in 4th class, we explored the topic of sound in Science. We investigated how sound is created through vibrations and how it travels through different materials. The children took part in hands-on experiments, exploring sounds in nature and testing how sound moves through solids, liquids, and air. We also learned about pitch and volume, and had great fun creating our own sounds using everyday objects. It was a very engaging week, with lots of curiosity, discussion, and discovery!
