Book Description
Have kids put their hands in the air & read up on Creative Coasters, Marathon Madness, May the GEE! Force Be With You and more = history + geography + science & math. Kids learn about the progress of this invention throughout history, while being frequently asked to stop and come up with their own improvements. Problem-solving challenges asking students how they would solve problems with rollercoasters are followed by the solutions inventors used. Learn about mules on rollercoasters, rollercoasters where all the passengers had to be weighed before getting on, and rollercoaster rides you had to pay to watch. For those who are still brave enough to want to ride, there's information on rollercoasters in Washington. Includes physics and construction, math problems, writing activities, creating your own names for rollercoasters, word searches and more. Free teacher's guide gives specific suggestions and instructions on how to get max educational value from this book. There's a good reason they're called scream machines . . .
