Students in Mrs. Bendel’s 5th-grade science class at Seven Mile Elementary recently constructed roller coasters from various classroom materials. Their goal was to make their coaster successful, safe, and fun for their riders (marbles). Students completed this STEM project in small groups, and made many adjustments and revisions until their coasters worked! This was an exciting project to finish up their study of force and motion!
