Newton's Cradle Design Challenge: Part 2
In this hands-on lesson, students will work together to build a system where energy is transferred between objects for as long as possible (i.e. Newton’s Cradle). Students continue the work that began in Lesson 1 where they brainstormed and sketched out a design with a group. Students use the engineering design process as they construct their build. There is a lab sheet for students to record data included with this lesson.

In this lesson, students will use the story of "The Three Little Superpigs and the Gingerbread Man" as the context to complete a hands-on STEM activity where they are responsible for building a trap
This lesson has a focus on Bernoulli's Principle, the venturi, and how it applies toward creating lift on an aircraft.
In this lesson, students will apply their knowledge from the prior day's lesson (Magnetic Marble Run Newton's Laws of Motion Day 1), to complete an Advanced Build of a Magnetic Marble Run. This lesson
