Marble Run

In this lesson plan, students explore the ideas of energy transfer between two objects. Students are tasked with making a maze for a marble to run through, using a 3d pen and other materials. Students

Students will build a paper marble run out of recycled paper which maximizes the time of travel. Students will then analyze the run with energy diagrams and determine how much energy was lost.

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

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

This lesson can be used to reinforce physical science standards, engineering design concepts, and collaboration. Students will work with a National Geographic Magnetic Marble Run to construct a basic

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

Students are challenged to complete a Ziggurat temple with a working marble run attached. It is a challenge for students to construct the longest working marble run.

In this interactive lesson, students take three days to create a maze using Gravitrax kits and pieces. Students then use their maze to create a model and explain where they see Newton's Laws of Motion

To demonstrate their understanding of how energy is passed throughout an ecosystem and the symbiotic relationships of organisms within an ecosystem, students construct a food web marble run. This
