Great Marble Run Challenge

In Te Ngahere we have been doing a Marble Run Challenge. In groups we had to create a ramp using random objects around the class. Our goal was to get a marble and roll it down a ramp so it can roll 110cm away from the end of the ramp. As well as creating the ramp we also had to learn about variables. Anything else we changed was a variable, even if it was the type of floor we were on, or the way we rolled the ball if we dropped it or pushed it. This activity was fun because we were able to work together and collaborate and use each others ideas.
