The document provides instructions for a science experiment on sound. Students are asked to explore various objects using their five senses and record observations in their notebook. They then explain their findings by answering questions about similarities and differences observed, the definition of sound, and what causes sound. Finally, students are instructed to elaborate by designing and building their own musical instrument and watching an explanatory video.
