Question: "How do you think energy travels through waves?"

Discussion: Share thoughts with a partner and then with the class.

MCQ:

1. What part of a wave represents the highest point?

   • A) Trough

   • B) Crest

   • C) Amplitude

   • D) Wavelength

Create a visual representation (drawing or digital graphic) illustrating how energy is transferred through waves, using the domino effect as an example.

Instructions:

• Label the parts of the wave (crest, trough, etc.).

• Include arrows to show the direction of energy transfer.

Submission: Upload your graphic to the Padlet.

MCQ:

1. Which type of wave requires a medium to travel?

   • A) Electromagnetic wave

   • B) Transverse wave

   • C) Longitudinal wave

   • D) Both B and C

Record a short podcast (2-3 minutes) explaining how energy transfer through waves occurs.

Instructions:

• Use examples from everyday life (e.g., sound waves, water waves).

• Discuss how these waves demonstrate energy transfer.

Submission: Upload your audio file or link to the Padlet.

MCQ:

1. What is the primary purpose of a wave?

   • A) To transfer energy

   • B) To transfer matter

   • C) To create heat

   • D) To change color

Essay Question: Conduct a hands-on experiment using dominoes or other small objects to demonstrate energy transfer through waves.

Instructions:

• Set up a line of dominoes and push the first one to show how energy travels.

• Record a video explaining what happens and how it relates to wave energy transfer.

1. Create a Wave Model: Construct a physical model of a transverse or longitudinal wave using materials like string, springs, or slinkies. Label the parts (crest, trough, compression, rarefaction). String, springs, slinkies, markers, poster board

2. Write a Reflection: Write a one-page reflection on what you learned about waves, including how energy is transferred and the differences between types of waves. Use specific examples to support your points.Paper, writing tools

3. Design a Presentation: Create a digital presentation (PowerPoint or Google Slides) explaining wave concepts, including definitions, types of waves, and energy transfer. Include visuals and examples.
