Online Science-athon/Marble Roll
Step 3: Plan Ahead

Get Ready for the Marble Roll Day!

1.

Decide when and where to hold the challenge. The marbles can roll long distances. Try to find a place with a long, smooth, unobstructed, flat surface. If the surface slants, you'll need to figure out how to make it as flat as possible.
 

2.

Get permission from the administration.
 

3.

Have a camera and film ready to take pictures.
 

4.

Incorporate the day into the school's math or science afternoon/night.
 

5.

Invite parents and school personnel.
 

6.

Ask a reporter from your local newspaper to be present on Marble Roll Day!
