Modeling the Unseen Project Assignment

Create a maze for a small ball to follow. Use boxes, and legos blocks to create the maze. The maze should be enclosed by the box lid and invisible when the box is closed. Make a map of your maze, but do not show it to other groups. We will use these to demonstrate how Science creates models of unseen phenomena. The students will trade mazes (which will be covered) and then tried to map the unknown maze with the benefit of being able to see the maze.

The Blueprints were drawn to represent the maze. The Maps were drawn blind.
