Mr. Price's students put their knowledge of the engineering design process, as well as, energy and energy transfer to create their own chain reaction machines (Rube Goldberg Machines). They finished and presented their machines to their classmates. Creativity, time management, and perseverance were key roles for creating a successful design.
