The wedge and the lever help focus our energy to make work easier. Micah and Noah found it was easier to pry the golf tees out of the styrofoam with the spoons. But Micah had a better, "The spoons breaks when you take out the tees. You can use the hook part of the hammer, that works better and it does not break." Micah showed Noah how to pry the tees out with the hook side of the hammer. Noah took his time and proceeded to remove all the tees from his piece of styrofoam. Each time he pryed out a tee he said, "Look another one!" The children figured out first hand, the hammer allows us to push the golf tee into the styrofoam easier than by hand alone, the spoon enables us to pry them out, which is difficult by finger strength alone.
