Description

Science Differentiated Passages: Waves – 4-PS4-1

⭐️These science differentiated passages focus on developing a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength and that waves can cause objects to move.

 

⭐️This unit is perfect for 4th grade. It was created to align with 4-PS4-1 but can be used in any classroom to teach students about waves.

 

⭐️Integrates key reading skills, with a focus on drawing conclusions and making inferences. Incorporates key vocabulary, text features, graphic organizers, and open-ended questions.
