Simple Machines - A Manaiakalani Film Festival entry


In Room 12 this year, we explored how simple machines make our tasks easier to perform.  We looked at the 6 different types of simple machines, and experimented with them to see how they work, and how they reduce our work load.  We also had fun riding the machines we made!

  1. Dear Room 12
    When I saw your movie in the Manaiakalani film festival, I was surprised of how much work your class put into this during the process. This movie is a helpful tool not only because it was funny but because students from around the world could benefit from it. Well done guys!

    I adore the background music used in the movie. The dialogue is also entertaining which really drawed me into the movie. When I watched this it brought me back to when I was making my simple machine, pulley. Is there any simple machines that you use frequently?

    Your movie has a very great impact on a lot of students. While watching your wonderful movie I had a blast! Room 8 and I have just finished writing our speeches on simple machines, Probably your movie caregiver others information about simple machines and they put it into their speech. How long was it making you educational movie ?

  47. This funny video made by room 12 was really cool and funny for me and it reminds me when I was at my Nans beach and I tried to pick up a big rock but it was too heavy. Where did you buy the puller circle to pull up the crayons because I would like to make a simple machine. I enjoyed your video very much.
