• Explore and use mechanisms (for example, levers, sliders, wheels and axles) in their products.
• Design & Technology, Key Stage 2, Technical Knowledge
• Understand and use mechanical systems in their products (for example, gears, pulleys, cams, levers and linkages).
• A more successful way to make cam toys due to the alignment of pre-punched holes.
• Shelves guide vertical movements; boxes and shelves come flat-packed with notes. Horizontal options for wider design possibilities.
• Offer a hands-on educational experience the boxes are designed to simplify cam toy construction through pre-punched hole alignment. This resource facilitates both basic and complex project creations, from leveraging simple mechanisms to incorporating elaborate mechanical systems.
• Key Stage 1 and 2 curricula are supported, promoting technical knowledge exploration from basic levers and wheels to gears and pulleys. The set’s versatility, including vertical and horizontal construction options, caters to diverse educational projects. Its durable cardboard composition is ready for classroom use, enhancing STEM learning with practical application.
The box enriches classrooms by not only providing a practical approach to designing mechanisms but also by nurturing critical thinking and problem-solving skills among children. Colour variations add a surprise element, making each project unique.
Colour may vary.
• A great time-saving resource
• Pre-punched holes in alignment
• Boxes and shelves supplied flat
