• Understand and use mechanical systems in their products (for example, gears, pulleys, cams, levers and linkages).
• Science, Year 5, Forces
• Recognise that some mechanisms including levers, pulleys and gears allow a smaller force to have a greater effect.
• Build your own twisting, turning robot with Gears! Gears! Gears!®.
• Children can use the 116 pieces in this set to design and build robots, cars, and machines that move and transform.
• Teachers will find this robot building kit an excellent tool for engaging children in STEM learning and developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and engineering skills through play and construction. The hands-on approach of designing and building robots, cars, and machines that move and transform makes learning fun and educational.
• The set includes 116 pieces, allowing children to be creative and practical as they explore technical knowledge. It enables children to understand and use mechanical systems such as gears, pulleys, cams, levers, and linkages.
Additionally, the kit supports the Science curriculum objectives by demonstrating how mechanisms like levers, pulleys, and gears allow a smaller force to have a greater effect. By following the included STEM Activity Guide or creating unique designs, children can effectively apply scientific principles to enhance their understanding of forces and mechanics.
• Engage children in creative STEM learning from the earliest opportunity.
• Encourage creativity and master critical thinking, problem solving and other STEM skills with every build.
• Includes 116 pieces for STEM constructions with endless possibilities.
