Incline Plane

Watch this video again to recap on our new learning about incline planes.

An incline plane is one of the two simple machines, the other one is a lever.  An incline plane is a sloping surface to help you in a job, e.g if you had a truck and you had to get something heavy into it, you could use a ramp to push the object into the truck An incline plane can be things like slides, balance beams, ramps, roofs and lots more.  There are different kinds of incline planes, like the screw. It is a incline plane in disguise, it is called a twisted incline plane.  A twisted incline plane is used to lift things or fasten  things together.
