The Conceptual Physics class worked on chaos towers to demonstrate concepts of Physics, Mechanics, Falling Objects, Newton's Law, Potential and Kinetic Energy.
CHAOS WORLD OF MOTION | Teaching Physics Toy - Construction Toy Equipment - Child Construction Toy - Educational Learning Toy |
Students work in three groups to construct the chaos towers. They then draw vector diagrams representing velocity of the marble through the track. Students then identify five concepts from first semester physics and explain how they are represented on the chaos tower. Lastly, they evaluate each member of their group against the Three C's: collaboration, communication and critical thinking.
This year one of my students put together a quick video of the chaos towers in action.
