STEM Unit: Cause & Effect (Rube Goldberg Machine)

Reminder 01: If you need any help or have any questions, please email me at [email protected]
Reminder 02: Since STEM is a hands-on course using resources at school that I cannot send home, if you are absent I will simply excuse you from any grade that I take while you are out. So, when you are absent focus on work for your core content classes (Math, Science, ELA, and Social Studies).
Mission:
Students will examine a cross cutting concept called  cause and effect by building Rube Goldberg Machines.
Phase One: Each student team will construct a Rube Goldberg machine including five (or more) cause & effect connections.

Phase Two: All student teams will connect their Rube Goldberg machines to form one large cause and effect machine.
