Activities in this teaching pack include an assessment test to assess understanding of how sound is produced by vibration complete with a marking scheme and matching record sheet and a worksheet to help the children assess their own progress for the National Curriculum programmes of study about identifying how sounds are made by vibration, investigating ways of changing pitch and volume and testing how some materials can be used for soundproofing.

This lesson is part of a science scheme of work to get the children to identify how sounds are made by vibration, investigate ways of changing pitch and volume and test how some materials can be used for soundproofing. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
