Help me give my students a mini golf set, a motion discovery kit, foam golf balls, and other tools to explore how objects move through spaces.

My Project
We are studying physics to answer the question "How can I use pushes and pulls to move a ball through a mini golf course?" I've included items that will help the kids experiment with the how and why of objects in motion so that they can design their own mini golf course.
Experiments include making an object move, using ramps (to speed up and/or slow down), and learning how to make an object change direction.
It's a fun unit that gets the kids thinking like engineers to create a fun course the class can play.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
