Technology Challenge

Task
The task was to design and build a model of a ramp with as many twists and turns as possible. The ramp needed to be at least 30cm off the ground and should carry a marble down to ground level. The marble must then roll across the floor (1 metre) to hit a target (checkpoint) 10cm wide. The groups then had 25-30 minutes to make it.


Points were be given for accuracy (hitting the target) and a point each for the number of times the marble changes direction.

 
Materials
  • 15 sheets of newspaper
  • 1 roll of sticky tape
  • 3 sheet of A4 card
  • 1 marble
Well done to Erasmus, Amani, Connor and Daniel ( The Tower of Terror) for their winning entry!!
