Simple Machine Gallery Walk-- video by Caitlyn

To help us as we're learning more about simple machines like how they help make work easier and some common household examples of them, we divided ourselves into six groups and became "experts" on one simple machine. Then individually we used various websites and our textbook to learn more about our machine, and then we came together to collaborate with our group on our informational banner about our machine.

Afterward, each group decided where to hang their banner in the room, and we did a gallery walk using the banners our classmates created to learn about the six simple machines we are focusing on: the wedge, inclined plane, wheel and axle, screw, pulley, and lever.
