• Select from and use a wide range of materials and components, including construction materials, textiles and ingredients, according to their characteristics.
• Design & Technology, Key Stage 1, Technical Knowledge
• Build structures, exploring how they can be made stronger, stiffer and more stable.
• Design & Technology, Key Stage 2, Make
• Select from and use a wider range of materials and components, including construction materials, textiles and ingredients, according to their functional properties and aesthetic qualities.
• Design & Technology, Key Stage 2, Technical Knowledge
• Apply their understanding of how to strengthen, stiffen and reinforce more complex structures.
• Design & Technology, Key Stage 2, Technical Knowledge
• Understand and use mechanical systems in their products (for example, gears, pulleys, cams, levers and linkages).
• This extensive kit includes over 6000 components, including dowels, for D&T construction and mechanism projects.
• Contains Jelutong wood, dowel, pulleys, gears, wheels, and other resources for diverse D&T and STEM projects.
• This resource pack addresses the need for comprehensive D&T materials by offering over 6000 components. It includes Jelutong wood, which is simple for children to drill and saw, catering to different skill levels. The pack supports the UK curriculum, especially in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 Design & Technology, helping children select and use various materials and components according to their properties.
• Pulleys, gears, and axles in the kit aid the exploration of mechanical systems, showing how sizes and numbers of teeth affect speed and power. This aligns with the curriculum objectives to build stronger, stiffer, and more stable structures.
Additionally, items like modelling wire, tubing, and balloons facilitate experiments in pneumatics and air power, ensuring that teachers have all necessary tools for engaging and educational STEM activities.
