Subject integration with sound unit

Integration of Subjects and Science for Sound -- link to planning integrated sound unit

This chart was designed as a framework for subject integration. As you can see the only subject area with defined subtopics is science. A crude integration, but a start.

Music
	Listen to songs, identify different pitches, length of sounds, volume of sounds, instruments, create instruments. Watch videos with and without music. Put music to play or story.
Art
	Draw sounds, diagram vibration, pitch, illustrate sound,
Creative movement
	To music and interpret different pieces of music with body movement
Health
	Loud sounds, how loud is loud, how ears hear, care of ears
Language arts
	Read stories related to music, sound, science of sound, different sounds, onomonopea, poems, group discussion skills
Mathematics
	Chart instruments by type, chart by historical age of instruments, equations for pitch, frequency, speed of sound, use computer to collect this data, and some simulations to illustrate these concepts. Problem solving: Critical thinking, reasoning
Science
Physical, Life, Earth Science Concepts	Properties of sound (vibrations, volume, tone/pitch/frequency) Identify sounds in the world and space?
Inquiry Processes	Observation sound vibrations can be observed. Sounds can be identified and classified by their properties. A model can be used to represent volume and frequency. Experiments can answer questions and lead to more questions.
Attitudes	Thinking of questions and investigating answers to the questions can be fun and challenging
Personal and social	Scientists work as individuals and groups
Technology	Creating technology is similar to experimentation
History and nature of science	The understanding of sound changed with time Sound can be understood with science, but not appreciated.
