As part of our topic (Can We Make It? Reuse and Recycle) we designed and made marble games. We had so much fun making them. We started by drawing a plan of how we thought our marble game might look. Mr Powell gave us criteria that our games had to meet (e.g. had to be self contained and sturdy). We also listed the materials we would need for our games. The next part was the best, we took our plans, large cardboard boxes and an assortment or reusable junk from home and started creating. This took 2 sessions. We needed to check our plans and make sure we were working according to what we had designed, if not, then we had to think about why. While we were working, we were constantly checking to see if our design was working. Once we had finished we shared our great marble games with Room 3 who were suitably impressed! Check out our pics, also the games will be in class until next term so come and have a look.
