Build a Rube Goldberg Machine

March 18 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

In this event, kids will learn about the six types of simple machines (levers, pulleys, inclined planes, wheels and axles, screws, and wedges) and use them to build a Rube Goldberg Machine. To make a Rube Goldberg machine, kids will piece together different simple machines to create a chain reaction to perform a simple task in an overly complicated way. This event is led by volunteers from the Society of Women Engineers.

This program is intended for students in grades 2-5, though younger may attend with a parent to assist Please register, as space is limited.
