Build pathways and ramps that use gravity to guide motion.
Learners build
A tilting ball maze that uses ramps, barriers, and pathways to guide motion toward a goal.
Learners start by arranging foam paths, supports, and obstacles on a maze board, then test how slope and layout affect the ball's movement.
From there, they can redesign it with dead ends, shortcuts, levels, challenges, team connections, or a longer pathway that links multiple mazes together.
Educator Resources
Student-facing slides introduce the concepts, guide the activity, and help learners reflect on what changed. Educator materials support setup, pacing, discussion, and extensions so this can work in classrooms, libraries, homeschool groups, clubs, or makerspaces.
