Marble Challenge

In our class  we have been making marble ramps. When we finished making the ramps, our class had a challenge.
The challenge was whose marble stopped the closest to 110 cm from the end of the ramp.

What was something your group did well?

My group wrote the instructions clearly for the other group to read, and we also put notes on the book and
pencil box to help the other group to construct our ramp. Our group was working together and collaborating will.

 

What is something you could have done better?

Our group could have folded the cardboard more clearly because when the marble rolled down the ramp it keeps
bouncing off the edge of the ramp.

How close did your marble get to 110 cm?  Did the marble go further than 110 cm? Or shorter?

The marbel went further than 110   

Why do you think your ramp was or was not successful? Why? Why not?

Our ramp was unsuccessful because our ramp became a variable because  in our practise we didn’t roll it the
same.

How clear were your instructions? What was something you explained well?  What was something that
needed to be clearer?

I think that my group wrote clear instruction, thay where qit detailed.

If you had an opportunity to design a new ramp.  What would you change? Improve?

I would make the folds on the ramp a lot clearer so the marble wont bounce of the edge of the ramp.
