I teach third grade. What you probably could do is use poster boards or
cardboards and bend it at different intervals to give a roller coaster
effect.

I totally agree. What grade do you teach? I teach 7th, and I was
trying to brainstorm ways in which I could adapt this activity with my
students to introduce the physics of roller coasters.

Just a little note to say how much I enjoyed Workshop 4. It was fun to
watch such young children investigating the speed of balls rolling down
ramps. I was amazed to see how they used their critical thinking skills
to derive to the point that the material of the balls made a difference
in the speed of the ball. This seems like an activity I could use with
my students.
