marble maze

Science

• The student learned about gravity and motion as they observed the path of the marble through the maze.
• They gained an understanding of cause and effect as they adjusted the angle and position of the maze to control the marble's movement.
• They developed problem-solving skills by experimenting with different maze designs to see how they affect the marble's travel path.
• The activity may also introduce principles of engineering and design as the student builds and modifies the maze.

For continued development, encourage the student to create more elaborate and challenging marble mazes using household materials such as cardboard, tubes, and other recycled items. They can also explore the use of different materials to make the maze, introducing concepts of friction and material properties.
