#4 simple machines at home.

We were studying simple machines at school. Now we had to find simple machines in our community.
This is a picture of me and a knife. The knife is a wedge.
This is a picture of my blinds. They are a pulley.

This is a door knob. It is a wheel and axel.


I am holding a screw.  The screw is a screw.

I have a flyswatter. The flyswatter is a lever.

I am sitting on my stairs. Stairs are a type of inclined plane.
