Imagine Scarlett and Liam are playing a game of catch in the schoolyard. Scarlett throws a ball at a concrete wall and then at a carpeted wall with the same force. Why does the ball make a louder sound when hitting the concrete wall compared to the carpeted wall?
The carpeted wall absorbs the sound.
The concrete wall doesn't move.
The vibrations of the concrete wall need more energy.
The vibrations of the carpeted wall will absorb less energy.
Imagine Aria and Aiden are in a band. Aria hits the drum. How does it produce sound?
By creating vibrations that move through the air
By absorbing surrounding sounds
By removing vibrations from the air
By turning sounds into vibrations
During a fun science experiment, Nora and Noah are testing different materials to see which one makes the least noise when knocked on. Which object do you think is LEAST LIKELY to produce a loud sound when Haley joins in and knocks on it?
A piece of glass
A piece of cotton
A piece of wood
A piece of metal
Michael is curious why water pouring into a bathtub makes a sound. Can you help him figure it out?
The moving water is a source of sound.
The moving water converts sound energy to motion.
The moving water allows sound to fill the empty space it leaves.
The moving water causes vibrations in the air.
Imagine Grace is in her music class and excitedly plucks a string on her guitar. What is the most likely reason a sound is produced?
The guitar string gets louder.
The guitar string makes an echo.

Imagine Daniel and Ava are trying to chat using two cans connected by a string, as shown in the picture. How does their message get across?
By using heat energy from their breath to send heat energy down the string
By causing vibrations with their voice to send sound energy down the string
By using the light energy in the air to send sound energy down the string
By shaking the cans to make magnetism, which travels down the string

Heat
Wind
Light
Sound
Imagine Benjamin and Abigail are on opposite ends of a playground. They've connected two paper cups with a string. How does this clever setup help them chat from a distance?
The cup will lengthen the vibrations of Benjamin's voice, making the sound reach Abigail faster.
The cup will amplify the vibrations of Benjamin's voice, helping Abigail hear him more clearly.
The cup will filter out the vibrations of Benjamin's voice, ensuring the sound is clearer when it reaches Abigail.
The cup will capture the vibrations of Benjamin's voice and transmit them along the string to Abigail's ear.
