Dear 7th grade families:
Our 7th grade science students are building Rube Goldberg Machines to show the transfer of energy from one place to another. We will be working on the machines in teams during our
classes. We can’t wait to see what the students dream up. We will need some supplies to build these machines. If you have any of the following at home that you can afford to donate to the
classes, it would be appreciated.
• Aluminum foil
• Plastic containers
• Cardboard
• Water bottles
• Toilet paper or paper towel tubes for chutes
• Cereal boxes to use like dominoes

• Toy cars
• String
• Buckets
• Cups or bowls
Our projects start Tuesday  March 3 with presentations starting Wednesday March 11th
.
