Thanks to Helen for the shots of her first grade students and parent volunteers making marble mazes using:
o objects from the studio's collection of "junque"
o and the laws of physics.

A marble maze is designed to make a marble take the slowest trip from start to finish. |
|
Students repurpose clementine boxes, paper towel rolls, marker tops and so on to form their obstacles. |
|
Students use gluedots to temporarily fasten pieces and adults use hot glue to make the mazes permanent. |
|
One engineer making sure the angle is not too steep otherwise the marble will go too quickly. |
|
These engineers are designing and testing and refining. |
