Engineering Challenge: Build a Marble Run
Build a marble run that will allow a marble to move from one place to another without falling.
Materials: You will need materials to make the ramps and tubes. This can be cardboard tubes, rolled recycled paper, or cereal or tissue boxes that you cut apart to make ramps. You can also use paper cups, recycled cans and milk cartons. You will also need tape, scissors, and a marble.
Plan: How are you going to build your marble run? Will it be able to stand on its own or will it be attached to a wall, your refrigerator, or a table and chairs? Where do you want the marble run to start, and where do you want it to finish?
Make: Cut some pieces of tape so you have them handy to use. If you need to cut some tubes in half to make ramps, do that first. Then build your run!
Test: This is the most fun part. Test your run. Did your marble stay on the run? Do you need to make adjustments to your run so the marble makes it all the way to the end?
Reflect: What did you learn when you were building this marble run?
Check out some interesting marble runs here and another example here.
Remember to record your observations in your moon journal.
