Student Instructions

Calling all G3 Builders, Designers and Engineers! You will be building your very own Rube Goldberg Machine. You will be using all the knowledge that you have about simple machines to create a device that will help you solve a problem. Your device will need to have more than one simple machine to make it work. Don't forget to sketch, label, photograph, video and explain, so that we can see all of your great ideas! The G3 Teachers Success Criteria: - Design and label a device that uses more than one simple machine to make it work. - Explain the different parts of your machine and how each part works together. - Use words that you have learned during the unit. - Iterate (big word for "make it better") to show how you improved your design. - Work in teams showing perseverance and listening skills.
