In class we learned about the six basic simple machines as well as Rube Goldberg machines. After we learned the science concepts behind each working part to the machines we were instructed to create our own. After designing and testing our Rube Goldberg machine we considered the elements we used in our creation. The main simple machine we used was an inclined plane. Therefore, following our creation we used multiple inclined planes to create a moving sculpture. Above is a video of our successful working sculpture. A marble follows three inclined planes to ultimately drop down a path that spins a playing card windmill and lands into a net at the bottom. a faithful attempt is a wonderful blog created with the sole purpose to share with teachers K-12 ideas for art projects. I hope you find this blog helpful when looking for ways to incorporate art into your classroom plans.
