Marble Tracks

At the end of our Forces topic we made marble tracks.We read the Inventors Diary and saw how that class worked and made their track and we watched some Youtube videos of some amazing tracks. We designed what we thought we would make and gathered up some tubes and anything else we thought would be useful. Mrs Evans-Weir said we needed to have....

                   a straight part.....a downhill part.......an uphill part......a jump....... a loop or curve.

We got to work and pretty soon our plans weren't being used and we were inventing as we went along. We started on Monday and we had to finish on Thursday. Unfortunately we had to tidy away at the end of each day so the room could be tidied and vaccuumed.

This track was the most successful.
