3. What is a Simple Machine?
A simple machine is a machine that has few or no moving parts.
Simple machines make work easier by changing the direction or amount of force needed to do work.
Write the 6 examples

4. Wheels and Axles The wheel and axle are a simple machine
The axle is a rod that goes through the wheel which allows the wheel to turn
Gears are a form of wheels and axles

5. Pulleys Pulleys are wheels and axles with a groove around the outside
A pulley needs a rope, chain or belt around the groove to make it do work
3 types of pulleys:
Fixed
Movable
Pulley systems

6. Fixed Pulley A fixed pulley is attached to a structure.
It allows a change in direction of the input force

7. Movable Pulley Attached to the object you are trying to move
It multiplies your force

8. Pulley System Combine a fixed and movable pulley Block and tackle
Increases mechanical advantage

9. Pulley examples Can you think of any other examples?
Clothesline pulley
Window blinds pulley

Flagpole pulley

10. Inclined Planes Can you think of any other examples?
An inclined plane is a flat surface that is higher on one end
Inclined planes make the work of moving things easier
A sloping surface, such as a ramp. An inclined plane can be used to alter the effort and distance involved in doing work, such as lifting loads. The trade-off is that an object must be moved a longer distance than if it was lifted straight up, but less force is needed. You can use this machine to move an object to a lower or higher place.  Inclined planes make the work of moving things easier.  You would need less energy and force to move objects with an inclined plane. 
Can you think of any other examples?

11. Inclined Plane Examples
Truck Ramp
Playground Slide
Wheelchair Ramp

12. Wedges Two inclined planes joined back to back.
Wedges are used to split things.

13. Screws
A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a shaft or cylinder.
The inclined plane allows the screw to move itself when rotated.

14. Levers-First Class
In a first class lever the fulcrum is in the middle and the load and effort is on either side
Think of a see-saw

15. Levers-Second Class
In a second class lever the fulcrum is at the end, with the load in the middle
Think of a wheelbarrow

16. Levers-Third Class
In a third class lever the fulcrum is again at the end, but the effort is in the middle
Think of a pair of tweezers

17. Simple Machines
Simple Machines can be put together in different ways to make complex machinery
