Jennifer-
I am excited to use your ideas this week. I am planning on doing your roller coaster idea on Friday. I don't understand how the chair is involved or how you attach the roller coaster to the chair. Do you have a photo so that I can visualize it? If so, could you email it to me at mbryan@jasper.k12.al.us ?

Hi Missy, I don't have a picture yet. We haven't gotten to this unit this year. The chair is to be used as the "hill" at the beginning of the ride. So you need to manipulate the wire so that it goes up over the chair and that is where the ride starts. Like this picture:

I hope this helps! I wish I had a picture but we won't be doing this until March, and this will be our first time doing it. I suggest trying it out before hand! Let me know how this works out!
