ideas on simple machines
By katy

Clip to ScrapBook   
One idea is to find pictures in magazines of things that contain one or more simple machine (i.e. a teeter totter for a lever). Put these pictures (which you may wish to laminate) in an envelope near or on the BB. Divide the board into six sections, and label each with the name of a simple machine. Students can look at the pictures and tack them to the appropriate section of the BB. I've done this as a file folder game, but it could be a good interactive BB for students who complete work early. Hope this helps!
