Roller Coaster Marble Run
In this hands-on lesson, students will have a teacher read aloud: "Rosie Revere, Engineer" and discuss the importance of perseverance and imagination while creating, building, and testing. They will work in teams of 3 to create Roller Coaster Marble Runs out of thin foam pool noodles cut lengthwise. Students will use masking or painter's tape to assemble foam channels in various configurations to explore force and motion. They will record and share findings in a variety of ways, based on choice.

This lesson will implement chain reactions and simple machines into a Rube Goldberg invention. Students will learn about the Rube Goldberg and his crazy inventions. They will then create their own
Understanding and studying energy transfer produced by molecules collisions can be difficult and abstract for them. To make it easier for them to visualize, creating a Newton's Cradle will help them
In this 7 week unit, students will utilize resources around them to create a garden for a culminating taco party! Students will work on science, math, and ELA within the unit. Feel free to host this
