About This Item
Description
Searching for an attractive activity? This one’s magnetic! Hear the "ooh's" and "ahh's" as kids power up their own functional Electromagnet Cranes! Kids learn the low-down on linkages and magnetism as they engineer, tinker with, and operate their cranes. They'll hoist, grab, and sort, even add a grapple (claw) to grab non-magnetic objects. Then kids test, redesign, and repeat to keep improving their designs and complete new challenges. TeacherGeek makes it easy and fun to construct new Crane designs, meaning kids are never done making! Grades 5 – 12 (different documents for different ages). Some adult assistance is helpful for 5th-graders. TeacherGeek is not a toy; it’s way better! Kids love making real things, especially when they get to use age-appropriate tools. Kids will need a Phillips screwdriver and AA battery for their Cranes.Features
