1. What do you see when you look at your self in a mirror? Why does this happen?
2. Why does your cellphone lose its signal when on the metrotrain?
TIER 2: Provide an example of one of the three Laws of Motion. Be sure to state which law is being highlighted.

3. Turn, Talk, Share, & Write ~ 3 min
When I say START, pass your lifeline to your nearest neighbor
For 45 seconds each student will edit their partner’s responses to the lifeline.
Write 1 glow and 1 grow from their responses
+ = At least three complete sentences, few to no grammar errors
= A minimum of two complete sentences some grammar errors
- = Does not complete lifeline on time, sentences incomplete
The person that WOKE UP the EARLIEST will SHARE the SUGGESTIONS and EDITS on their partner’s LIFELINE, FIRST.
Students will be RANDOMLY called to SHARE OUT what THEIR PARTNER discussed. BE PREPARED TO SHARE!!

6. WRITE OBJECTIVE IN YOUR LEARNING LOG (OWN WORDS)
~ 2 min
By the end of class students will compare and contrast reflection, refraction, and diffraction by deconstructing informational text and performing mini-investigations in small groups.
Standard: HS-PS4-1. Use mathematical representations to support a claim regarding relationships among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media.
WRITE OBJECTIVE IN YOUR LEARNING LOG (OWN WORDS)

7. Wave Interactions EXPLORATION
~ 2 min
Instructions:
When I say START, you and members of your assigned group will INVESTIGATE several wave interactions and identify each phenomenon based on your notes. Draw a diagram and describe your investigation in the summary portion of your notes.
Rules:
Every group member must contribute
No cellphones
2 minute timer
Responses must be written down before the timer runs out
Be prepared to share

8. Why do waves reflect? ~ 2 min
A reflection occurs when a wave bounces back after hitting a barrier. All waves can be reflected
Sound waves reflecting off a barrier are called an echo.

9. Why do waves diffract? ~ 2 min
Diffraction is the bending of waves around a barrier or through an opening.
The amount of diffraction of a wave depends on its wavelength and the size of the barrier opening.

10. Why do waves refract? ~ 2 min
Refraction is the bending of a wave as the wave passes from one medium to another.
The wave changes speed as it passes from one material to the next. The resulting wave bends and travels in a new direction.
When light waves pass through a prism the different colors travel at different speeds through the droplet

11. Wave Interactions EXPLORATION

12. Critical Thinking Questions
~ 8 min
Critical Thinking Questions
How does refraction relate to wave speed from our lessons, last week?
Construct a Venn Diagram to compare reflection, diffraction, and refraction
Why is it important to understand how waves interact with other objects? Use specific examples

13. Independent Practice (15-20 min) Scholarly Studies
Option 1:
Read Chapter 20:3 “Wave Interactions”.
Complete Cornell Notes SILENTLY for Chp 20:3
Students that attempt AND are successful with BLANK Cornell Notes will receive 5 extra credit points.
At the end of 15 minutes you will be graded on your overall performance.
+ = All important topics are completed, written neatly.
= Missing a couple topics and remained on task for the majority of the time
- = Unable to complete 1 pg of Cornell Notes, remained distracted

14. SCHOLAR GROUPS (TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE)
~ 1 min
Rules:
Every group member must contribute
No cellphones
1 minute timer
All answers must be written down before the timer goes off WITH page numbers
When I say START, you and members of your assigned group will DEMONSTRATE your COMPREHENSION from the text by answering questions.
Each group will have 1 minute to answer the question and support their answers using a text.
Reward:
1st place 100 hero points, 5pts extra credit on quiz
