Let your students explore real-world concepts and principles in the field of engineering with the K'NEX Education Energy, Motion & Aeronautics Set. With over 1,400 K'NEX pieces made of durable plastic, this engineering educational toy allows young builders to construct nine fully-functioning replicas of energy, motion, and aeronautics models, up to three at a time. Create your own jet plane, parachute, centrifuge machine, or rocket launcher and be amazed by how energy and motion can make these models come to life. Study after study has revealed that students have more success learning STEM subjects through activities that are related to the real world than by reading about abstract concepts in textbooks. This building set is designed to introduce students to scientific concepts through hands-on learning. With this fun and inquiry-based approach, students in grades five to nine can build, investigate, and evaluate scientific principles in action. K'NEX Education not only stimulates kids' brains, it also promotes their social skills through teamwork and collaboration. This building set makes a great learning tool for students, as it can be utilized by six to nine people at once working in teams. The building instructions and a comprehensive teacher's guide that is aligned to science, technology, engineering, and math standards are included. This set is recommended for children ages ten and above. Since this building set comes with a reusable bin for convenient transport and storage, furthermore, you can have a quick and hassle-free cleanup after playtime. This teaches young builders to keep their playing areas tidy and organized at all times. Learning is fun. Get your child a K'NEX Education Energy, Motion & Aeronautics Set today and introduce scientific concepts to them the exciting way.
