Get students excited about physics as they explore forces and motion by designing their own marble mazes! In this hands-on engineering activity, learners discover how unbalanced forces cause movement and apply that knowledge to guide a marble through a maze they create. Students build strong structures, test marble movement, and adjust pathways to find the right mix of challenge and fun. The interactive testing phase, where classmates try each other’s mazes, adds energy, teamwork, and excitement to this creative exploration of motion and design.
