Marble Runs
STEM Challenge for Fourth and Fifth Graders
In March 2023, fourth and fifth graders experienced "Marble Mania" for a couple of weeks. There were several challenge centers, including Marble Genius' Marble Run, National Geographic's Makeway Magnetic Marble Run, LEGO base plates and the library's LEGO Wall.
Videos of marble runs created during Marble Mania are available on Orchard School's Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq82DHIJqDq/ |
Second grade students learn a great deal about teamwork & problem solving when building marble runs on LEGO base plates.
