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.
Provide and receive feedback through peer critiques

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

Students will understand the concept and properties of buoyancy and density, through a hands-on exploration with the Lakeshore Design and Play STEAM Kit Boats by assembling boats using a foam hull
