Ocean Wave, Sound Wave, Light Wave,
Shock Wave, Radio Wave, Microwave,
Heat Wave, Brain Wave

A wave is a wiggle in space and time
like an ocean wave it moves up and down
Repeating in cycles of up and down
The up is called the CREST
and the TROUGH is the down

The wavelength is the distance
from crest to crest or trough to trough
(Into a puddle rain drops drop and water
waves roll off)

A wave carries energy as it goes
Sound waves make air molecules rock and roll
To and fro and to and fro, from speaker to
ear that's how they go!
Sound waves make ari molecules rock and roll!

The frequency is the rate that sound waves
make air molecules shake! The higher the freq
the higher the pitch and the faster the molecules twitch!

The bigger the bell the longer the wavelength
and the slower the air shakes!
The smaller the bell the shorter the wavelength
and the faster the air shakes!

Tune into my frequency
and do the freaky wave with me!
Sound waves make me rock and roll!
Up and down and to and fro!
Microwaves cook your casserol
making water molecules rock and roll!
Wave it up! Heat it up! Eat it up!

Physics! Mmmmmmmmmm Yum! Yum!
