Acceleration Slides
In this hands-on lesson, students explore force and motion. They will plan the construction of a slide for a marble that will show how the unbalanced force of gravity will act on the marble in order for the marble to travel throughout the length of the slide. Students will then analyze how they make the marble slowdown in the middle of the tract but not enough to stop the marble. This is an example of another unbalanced force acting on the marble. The students will then construct and test the design of the slide.

In this hands-on lesson, students explore unbalanced forces through a variety of learning experiences and reading material. They then create simple machines to demonstrate unbalanced forces.
In this hands-on lesson, students learn about the discipline of structural engineering by using the engineering design process to create a load-bearing structure. The purpose of this lesson is to
In this hands-on lesson, students will plan, build and create a roller coaster from random materials that a Ping Pong ball can travel through. Students engage in the engineering design process as they
