MS-PS4-1 Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer 

Students who demonstrate understanding can: Use mathematical representations to describe a simple model for waves that includes how the amplitude of a wave is related to the energy in a wave.
Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on describing waves with both qualitative and quantitative thinking.
Assessment Boundary: Assessment does not include electromagnetic waves and is limited to standard repeating waves.

Crosscutting Concepts

Science & Engineering Practices 

Disciplinary Core Ideas 

Patterns:

  • Graphs and charts can be used to identify patterns in data.

Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking:

  • Mathematical and computational thinking at the 6–8 level builds on K–5 and progresses to identifying patterns in large data sets and using mathematical concepts to support explanations and arguments.
  • Use mathematical representations to describe and/or support scientific conclusions and design solutions. 

Waves Properties:

  • A simple wave has a repeating pattern with a specific wavelength, frequency, and amplitude.
