Simple machines are devices that make work easier. Students are introduced to the six types of simple machines — the wedge, wheel and axle, lever, inclined plane, screw, and pulley — in the context of the construction of a pyramid, gaining high-level insights into tools that have been used since ancient times and are still in use today. In hands-on activities, students begin their own pyramid design by performing materials calculations, and evaluating and selecting the right materials for the job.
