Waves Unit Teaching Plan

In this unit, students develop models of global telecommunication by investigating how a round-the-world video call works. To explain this phenomenon, students examine how sound and light waves transfer information to digital devices like smartphones. As they progress through the unit, they revise their models to reflect their growing understanding of sound and light energy.

The Waves Teaching Plan also provides information about pre-requisite student knowledge, a guide to the assessments in the unit, and session-by-session lesson plans.
