Pu Xi Grade 2: Ramps and Toy Cars Experiment

Using cardboard strips and books, the students worked in groups to construct ramps. The students were experimenting to see if they could control the distance a car travels off the ramp. They learned that the higher the ramp is, the longer distance the car will travel. Another part of the experiment involved adding different textures to the cardboard ramp in order to create varying degrees of friction. This activity created a lot of excitement in the classroom, and the children certainly had fun while learning.
