How is dolphin communication similar to human communication?
In BioMusic, page 2.10
In this lesson, students will find several similarities between the ways humans and dolphins use sound to communicate. They will practice making their own dolphin sounds and use them to communicate with a partner. They will also use these sounds to accompany a reading of Dolphin Talk: Whistles, Clicks, and Clapping Jaws by Wendy Pfeffer.
