We are very excited our project was featured on the Cambridge Public Schools Facebook page! This project was based on using ‘Forces at a Distance’ electricity, electromagnetism, magnetism and gravity to create a kinetic sculpture. Students were given a wide variety of materials and tools to create with, including use of power tools, batteries, decorative materials and their own imagination!

Here is a video of a team of 8th grade students using their sculpture to play their favorite musical instrument – the ukelele!! Click hereĀ  Kinetic Sculpture
