Rube Goldberg Project assigned 5/9 & 5/10

Today, students were assigned a take home project where they have to create a chain reaction of events.  The project description and rubric are located below.  Students can choose to work by themselves or with one other person.  If you are working by yourself you need to use at least 3 different simple machines and the chain reaction has to have at least 5 separate steps.  If you are working with a partner, the pair needs to use at least 5 different simple machines and the chain reaction has to have at least 8 separate steps.  Each project should be submitted as a video (on flash drive or emailed to Mrs. LaRosa) and a labeled picture of the Rube Goldberg with written description of simple machines used and steps.
