Be Glad Your Nose Is On Your Face
By Jack Prelutsky
Be glad your nose is on your face,
not pasted on some other place,
for if it were where it is not,
you might dislike your nose a lot.
Imagine if your precious nose
were sandwiched in between your toes,
that clearly would not be a treat,
for you’d be forced to smell your feet.
Your nose would be a source of dread
were it attached atop your head,
it soon would drive you to despair,
forever tickled by your hair.
Here’s a checklist for this week’s assignments
Sound
This week we’ll be learning about sound energy. Let’s start with a story by our friend Oscar.
We know we hear sounds all the time. But what exactly is sound? Why does it count as a type of energy? Why are some sounds high and others low? This next video should help answer some of those questions and others you might have.
To help you remember what you’ve learned, find your mom/dad/sibling and retell them what you just learned. Be sure to include as many details as you can remember.
Let’s Experiment!
Did you know that sound can move things??? It’s true! In this experiment, you’ll make rice move without touching it. Give it a try at home.
Now are you ready to see sound move more things? This is a really fun video of a powerful speaker moving all sorts of things. Which one is your favorite?
Music Connection
One of my favorite things to listen to is music. Can you believe that with just sound waves and our incredible ears, we can hear something as beautiful and diverse as music!?! How do instruments make music? This video gives a great explanation.
This week, I want you to make your own instrument from simple supplies around your home. Make sure to bring your instrument to class because we’ll be creating a band! Here are a list of instruments you can make:
I can’t wait to see what you create and hear our band in action! One last fun video before we’re done. In this amazing video, you can actually see the sound waves created by the trumpet. You can also see how the waves change with the pitch! So cool!
