Marvellous Marble Runs

Caroline Brown —

The Senior Hub have had loads of fun creating a group marble run.

   I liked doing the marble run because I liked all the different ways you could set up where it's going to go and because you can try different ideas to see what worked best.

Last Friday the Senior Syndicate had a maker task. We had to get into groups of four: year 5 boy, year 5 girl, year 6 boy and a year 6 girl. Our set task was to make a sturdy and long marble run. We could only use:

Masking tape.

Cardboard.

Blue tack.

Scissors.

We had about two days to finish it. When we were finally finished the marble run our last tasks were to put it on Seesaw and also to decide who takes it home. If we liked we were allowed to add onto it at home which Roree did. We had heaps of fun.

Last week Rooms 3, 2 and 1 made marble runs in a group. We made our one tall and like a pinball machine. It worked well once we tried some different ideas.
