Marble Run Lesson Plan

We at STEAMboat Studio want every child to have the opportunity for fun and engaging hands-on STEAM learning experiences, especially in the classroom.

In this lesson, students will investigate friction and kinetic and potential energy while building a series of ramps to change the speed of a marble.

This is a downloadable digital lesson plan that NGSS standards aligned and includes vocabulary, science background, activity instructions and supply list. No supplies are included in this item.

We recommend these activities for Kindergarten to 8th grade. Differentiation in the form of more advanced prep or hands-on assistance for younger students or more detailed explanations for older students may be necessary.
