Testing out how things roll...

Today we built ramps and tested out how different types of wheels roll.  We looked at little wheels and large wheels and found out that big wheels roll faster than little wheels.

Some students built ramps using big blocks.  We extended our learning by testing out what happened to the vehicles if we made our ramps even steeper.  We learnt that our vehicles roll much further if we build steeper ramps.



What a fun day of testing out how different types of wheels roll!
