Classroom Supplies + 1 hour + Gifted Students = Amazing Rube Goldberg Machines
"A Rube Goldberg machine is a contraption, invention, device or apparatus that is deliberately over-engineered to perform a very simple task in a very complicated fashion, usually including a chain reaction. The expression is named after American cartoonist and inventor Rube Goldberg." Wikipedia
First Fridays are a chance to bring the entire Seabury School together and participate in activities that engage and thrill our gifted and talented students. With just a motivation video, a classroom of regular stuff, one hour of time and a bunch of multi-aged brilliant kids, amazing machines were engineered that would make Rube Goldberg smile. It sure made all the kids and their teachers smile!
