Peaks Knowledge:
Students know:
Waves can be described in terms of patterns of repeating amplitude and wavelength (e.g., in a water wave there is a repeating pattern of water being higher and then lower than the baseline level of the water).
Waves can cause an object to move.
The motion of objects varies with the amplitude and wavelength of the wave carrying it.
The patterns in the relationships between a wave passing, the net motion of the wave, and the motion of an object caused by the wave as it passes.
How waves may be initiated (e.g., by disturbing surface water or shaking a rope or spring).
The repeating pattern produced as a wave is propagated.
Waves, which are the regular patterns of motion, can be made in water by disturbing the surface. When waves move across the surface of deep water, the water goes up and down in place; there is no net motion in the direction of the wave except when the water meets a beach.
Waves of the same type can differ in amplitude (height of the wave) and wavelength (spacing between wave peaks). Skills:
Students are able to:
Develop a model to make sense of wave patterns that includes relevant components (i.e., waves, wave amplitude, wavelength, and motion of objects).
Describe patterns of wavelengths and amplitudes.
Describe how waves can cause objects to move. Understanding:
Students understand that:
There are similarities and differences in patterns underlying waves and use these patterns to describe simple relationships involving wave amplitude, wavelength, and the motion of an object.

Create a list of multiple ideas, sketches, or thumbnail-sketches before beginning the final version of an artwork.
Identify, select, and vary art materials, tools and processes to achieve desired results in their artwork.
Brainstorm (alone or with others) potential art styles for a given piece of art, such as Monet's Water Lilies .
Create an artwork from direct observation (still-life, self-portrait, figure drawing, etc.).
Design a two-dimensional drawings of a futuristic art room, town, or planet
Use wood, found objects, wire, paper, or clay-based materials to construct a three-dimensional form.
Locate business logos in the community and explore the visual arts skills and materials that were used to create these works.
Engage in group critiques of one's work and the work of others.
Experiment with art materials by using them in unusual and creative ways to express ideas and convey meaning.
Use and care for materials, tools, and equipment in a manner that prevents danger to oneself and others.
Mix equal parts of a primary and a secondary color located beside each other on the color wheel to create a tertiary color.
Use the design principles of repetition and alignment to add visual unity to an artwork.
Create a painting using a monochromatic color scheme by using one color (red) adding white to create a tint (a lighter value--pink) and adding black to the color (red) to create a shade (darker value).
