Pulleys and Gears


Good Evening Students,
Now that we have finished up our unit on Habitats and Communities we are going to move in a different direction. As we talked about in class one of the expectations for grade four is learning about pulleys and gears. The following link touches on what makes a simple machine and the pulleys and gears that are used. This will be important to know as your final project for this unit is to create a simple machine using both pulleys and gears. Explore this site and write down a few ideas for the machine you would like to create.
Oh, and have FUN!
Ms. Lockie
