Danielle Faulkner’s fourth grade class at Bayview Elementary School recently created Rube Goldberg machines. These are machines that use a series of chain reactions to perform a task; each reaction is a simple task that triggers the next. The reactions transfer energy through pulleys, levels and more. The students were able to explain how energy was being transferred, where there was potential energy and what happened to cause that energy to change into kinetic energy.
