  • Describe two steps in this machine that rely on the force of gravity.
  • Do any of the steps in the machine involve a lever, a pulley, or an inclined plane? Describe how they work.
  • Which was your favorite step? Can you think of a way to use this step in a machine of your own invention? What simple task would your machine accomplish and how many steps would you use to accomplish it? Draw a diagram of your machine.
  • Do you think that the ZOOM cast members got each step in the machine to work properly the first time they tried it? Can you imagine their design process? What do you think they had to do to get all 34 steps to work properly?
