An Excuse to be Loud...

We were exploring the sense of sound!

Our ears hear things and send a message to our brains. Our brains then use that information to make decisions! For example, what would you do if...

• you heard a fire alarm?
• you heard a friend crying?
• you heard the ice cream truck?
• you heard a funny joke?

You ears and your brain work together so you will know exactly what to do!

We explored our sense of hearing by doing several fun (and noisy!) activities! We shook "sound jars" and tried to guess what was inside them...

No peeking!

A ha! A match!
And we got to go crazy with things that made different sounds...

DING...CLANG...

RATTLE...

SCRATCH...

SHAKE...

WHOO...

Throw in a few BOOMS and a RING RING for good measure...and you get the idea!

And then....ahhhh.... Peace and Quiet!
