My simple machine

IMG_20170815_074824.jpg


For our topic study we were learning about simple machines. We were told to make a toy using one of the two simple machines, pulley or wheel and axle. I chose to make mine with a pulley.  I had a hard time making a toy so I used YouTube to help me with my ideas. Here are the tools I used:


  1. Cardboard
  2. Bottle cap
  3. Chop stick
  4. Water bottle
  5. String


Including the pulleys and wheel and axle there are actually six simple machines, which are:


  1. Gears
  2. Lever
  3. Wedge
  4. Screw
  5. Pulley
  6. Wheel and axle
