collect more later. Avoid fire or dangerous chemicals or anything that goes against school policy! If you are not sure please check with me before your bring it in!! .If there is anything I can provide for you let me know. You are welcome to have it if I have it! Now play with the things! What can the car bump into or knock down? Can the string pull something up? What can push the ball down the cardboard ramp? Try it out! Get a piece of paper and start writing down any idea that pops into your head. This is called brainstorming. No matter how crazy the idea seems, just write it down for later. Even if you don't use it, it may help you think of more things. This is called brain storming! Remember not to overlook the most important element of an outstanding Rube Golberg machine: WACKINESS! Rube saw the humor in every situation!! You do not need to spend money to do this. Just look for silly, interesting things around your home to help you. GO CRAZY! A true Rube Golberg machine would be boring without some common household items (old toys, toilet plunger, egg beater, mousetrap, typewriter...). Also remember to follow the rubric for requirements! Please refrain from using kits. This project is intended to also encourage the students to apply their creativity. Parent Signature: ____________________________________________ 5 Points
