Exploring Sound
Students will understand some common ways in which sound is represented visually, and gain practice in comparing visual and auditory representations of sounds using bird call and song as a focus. Students will learn about a spectrogram and how this tool is used. They will then create their spectrograms from several birds’ calls and songs.
Students will:
• Draw changes in sound duration and frequency using a spectrogram
• Learn how to identify the sounds of a few common CT bird species
