Southern Pines Elementary School Teacher Mrs. Moore, wanted to make sure her 5th grade students were 100% engaged while learning the concepts of force, gravity, and inertia for science class. She agrees that it is not enough to simply teach the concepts -
students must EXPERIENCE the concepts!
While implementing the engineering process,
which is reviewed before every engineering thread lesson in Moore County Schools, the students, in teams of 4, used the following supplies to create their very own rollercoasters:
- 10 sheets of regular copy paper
- 4 sheets of card stock paper
- a roll of masking tape
- scissors
- A sheet of poster board (for a base)
- 2 paper plates (for optional funnels)

This is the process of transferring the information provided in working drawing (plan) by the designing engineer or architect to the ground. This task is carried out by either a civil engineer who can be referred to as site engineer. Or a builder (someone that study building).
