Properties of sound

Properties means something belong to someone or something.

Sound can travel around corners. Sound can travel in every direction. Sound is louder when it is closer to the source.

Mr Wong proved sound could travel around corners. He clapped around the corner with his meter and the sound was record on the meter.

Mr Wong proved that sound can travel in every direction. Mr Wong made sound around the source with his phone. The meter recorded the sound at dB.

Lastly, Mr Wong proved sound louder when closer to the source. Mr Wong had two meters on each side of the room. Mr Wong clapped next to one meter. One meter record a small decibel and the other recorded a bigger decibel.

writing

Homophone, Homonyms, and Homographs are a special groups of words that many people mix up and get confused with.

 Homophones are words that are spelt differently,  sound the same , but don't mean the same. For example I rode to school. Road is something that a car drives on and rode is when you ride your bike somewhere.

Homographs are words that have the same spelling but you say it differently and do not mean the same. Like lead and lead. lead is a heavy metal and lead is to guide someone.

Homonyms are words that sound the same, have the same spelling, but different meaning. For example scale and scale.
Scale is fish skin and scale is for weighting people.

reading

I Found words in the book and grouped them into verbs, adjectives, and descriptive language. 
Verb is a moving action like walking and running.
An adjectives is a describing word, and descriptive language is almost the same like adjectives.
I had to read a book called the crocodile's Christmas jandals.

 I had to use my action words. We had to take the word from the book, then link this to the other tense of that verb.
