Exploring Machines This module introduces students to simple machines. Students explore concepts related to simple machines through everyday objects and by building working models with K’NEX components. They perform hands-on experiments and solve problems using mathematical formulas to show how simple machines make work easier. Topics include levers, inclined planes (ramps, wedges, and screws), wheels and axles, pulleys, gears, and compound machines. Through building and experimenting, students hone their troubleshooting, critical thinking, and other skills necessary for scientific inquiry. This module focuses on the process of invention and the importance of imagination, innovation, and experimentation in solving problems. This curriculum will accommodate 7-, 10-, or 15-day class rotations.
