Simple machines have been used even since some old civilizations. To introduce the application of simple machines in the past, I showed this video to my students. While watching the video, they must recognize simple machines used and their function as well.
The students spotted some types of simple machines used to build pyramids in the Ancient Egypt civilization, namely wedges, inclined planes and pulley. They were also able to mention the function of each tool. After they become familiar with the types of simple machines, they observed the school area to find tools that applied simple machines. Some levers in different classes, wheels, what else, kiddos?
