Problem Solving through Science! | Tuesday, 3rd period
Miguel greeted everybody to class, albeit his hello to Beaker was a little wary and relieved.
"Today we're working with money. Enjoy." He pulled a dramatic lever - hey, why shouldn't he get a little fun, too? - and a stream of coins came down into a pile.
"Make a machine or devise a method of sorting them without actually touching them." He paused. "Well, okay, you can feed them into your whatever by hand. But you can't just sit there and sort them manually. If you want to do extra," another dramatic lever pull, another pile, "have it sort the cash, too."
He looked at them. "And none of this is real; it'll all disappear if it leaves the room. Just so you know."

Re: Class activity
That part was actually fairly easy! Once she started working on the actual physical machine that was supposed to do the sorting, she hit a bit of a snag: turned out a machine like that had a lot more little moving parts than she was used to working with, and things kept getting jammed up in the works.
Talk to Miguel!
