We began creating a booklet about waves. Students must complete this in class. We will work on it Mon, Tues, & Wed. You can come in at 8:30am Tues, Wed, or Thurs if you need more time to complete it.
Start making flashcards with the vocabulary words. We will have a vocab quiz on Tues. 3/8 on the following words: longitudinal wave, transverse wave, mechanical wave, electromagnetic wave, amplitude, wavelength, wave speed, frequency, compression, rarefaction, rest position, wave, crest, trough. Use your flashcards to study every night!

Imagine that your family has just returned home from a day at the beach. You had fun playing in the ocean under a hot sun. You put some cold pizza in the microwave for dinner, and you turn on the radio. Just then, the phone rings. It’s your friend calling to ask about homework.
Copy these questions and answer them. pg 574
A. What is a wave?
