Simple Machines - Rube Goldburg - Inquiry

LI: To learn about the five simple machines and apply what you learnt into make a machine.

Our Rube Goldburg machines were tested and presented. We had to chose one scenario out of three.  A Rube Goldburg machine is a complicated machine made to do a simple task. Our scenario was putting a ball into the goal, but the main idea was to put the ball.If you wanted someone to be one of the part in the machine then they had to were blindfold. Also when were the blindfolds something or someone must touch the other person.

Example : 

Say if you were in the machine and something touches you then you move. You can't see which direction you are going or what direction you going to hit something into.

What we used : 

We also had to include the simple machines.

The 4 main Ideas were

1-wheel and Axel.

2-Lever

3-Pulley

4-Inclined Plane.

Experiences In the groups :
Each member in the groups thought was that our machine was going to fail because the person putting might of hit the ball in the wrong direction. But our simple machine worked. Every part of the simple machine worked.

What I would do Differently :
I will change the part when someone pushes the domino's and someones finger is their. So when the domino's touch someones finger and they push the pull. Just to make it is easier.  

Experiences - Challenges :  

This experiences we had was challenging.My Movement was waiting for a ball to hit the putter and then I would swing the putter and will hit the ball into the goal.
