Rube Goldberg Machine - Simple Machines Lesson 8 of 8
This is the culminating activity of the 8 part lesson series on simple machines. Students will put together everything they have learned about each individual simple machine to create a complex chain-reaction machine.
In this lesson students will:
Identify simple machines
Discuss how simple machines make work easier;
Plan and construct a machine that uses each type of simple machine.

This lesson will explore the idea of circuits as the students wire the components of a together to create a working wobble-bot.
Rad Roller Coasters Part 2 comes at the end of our paper roller coaster project. Students will collect data on their coaster and use that to calculate velocity, potential energy and kinetic energy
~Students apply the engineering design process as they learn the advantages and disadvantages of the greenhouse effect. ~Students will work collaboratively to construct a miniature greenhouse to
