The 8th grade sciences class have been learning about Newton's 3 Laws of Motion. To put the laws to the test, they created marble race tracks and participated in "The Slowest Marble Race". Students wanted their marble to take the longest amount of time possible to complete their race. They used recyclable materials to build their marble tracks. They were so creative!! Our longest time was 2 minutes and 23 seconds!! They did amazing!
