The main focus of the lesson is to show students how waves interact and behave in various mediums. It begins by introducing wave behaviour in various mediums including solids, liquids gases and in outer space. It then examines how sound travel differs in different weather conditions as well as when it meets a free or fixed end. Lastly, it looks at wave interference including destructive and constructive interference.

The student version of the presentation contains multiple blanks that need to be filled in throughout the lesson. These blanks are conveniently underlined and bolded on the teacher copy. I have found this to be the most effective means of keeping my students engaged and active without having them write everything out. This also leaves more time for discussion and activities.
