Students made a marble run using paper towel rolls, tape, glue, marbles, paint and a cardboard base. |
Students had to think about the angles and plan ahead with group members in order to successfully build a secure, free standing structure. |
Holes were cut in the towers for the shoots to rest in. Each group made sure that it was tilted downward to ensure the marbles would roll down. |
Students had fun designing their cardboard tubes with various paints to create their own unique towers. |
Everyone enjoyed creating, testing, problem solving, then creating and testing again! |
All of the towers were marked out, then glued and taped down to create a strong and stable base. |
