Slow Marble Roll

Maybe you’ve seen marble races. This is sort of the opposite. How long can you make a marble take to roll across a table? What is the longest, slowest route? Participants can explore and tinker as they try to make a marble (or any rolling sphere) take as long as possible to roll across a surface.

MATERIALS NEEDED

  • Any flat surface (table, board, desk)

  • Marble (or any rolling ball)

  • Various household or classroom objects
