All About Light And Sound

Light and sound are two of the most important ways to understand the world around us. The sun is Earth's main source of energy and light. Light bounces off objects and travels to our eyes. Our eyes and brain work together to translate that light into what we see while our ears pick up sound vibrations and translate them into meaningful messages.

Explains the importance of light and sound in the universe and describes what scientists have found out about them.

In Waves of Light and Sound, students will learn about electromagnetic and mechanical waves, the properties of waves and sounds, pitch, amplitude, and much more.

Light and sound are two of the most important things in the universe. Without them everything would be dark and silent. Plants and animals would die. What scientists have found out about light and sound helps us live and work, but there is more to learn. For more information on light and sound, read Pioneers of Light & Sound, another book in the Mission: Science series.
