The Last of the Machines


Silly guy finished his Machine study in science this past week. It was a great unit with lots of fun experiments and information.
On our last day of the unit, he made this catapult out of Popsicle sticks, a rubber band and masking tape. I also had him write a short paper about how the catapult reduced work during battle. You can find the tutorial for How to Make a Catapult here. It was so simple to make and a lot of fun.

Little man always likes to join in the fun.
Pulley experiments

Now he is moving onto Electricity and Magnetisim. Ooooo! He has been waiting for this study:)
