Explore STEM concepts while building a motorized Swing Ride! Using thematerials included in this set, students in grades 5-9 will be engaged andenergized as they further their knowledge and understanding of the science,technology, engineering and math concepts associated with a real-lifeamusement park ride. This K’NEX Education Set includes over 470 K’NEX partsand a battery-powered motor for 1-3 children to build a working Swing Ride.Two additional models can be built (one at a time), a Ferris Wheel and a BoomRide. After building, downloadable experiments guide students through hands-on, inquiry-based projects on each of the models. Students will learn abouthow mass affects speed, how to gear-up and gear down, and much more! This setis aligned to STEM standards. STEM Education focuses on science, technology,engineering and mathematics concepts taught through problem-solving,discovery, exploratory learning and critical thinking. STEM Education requiresstudents to be active participants in the learning process. K’NEX models offerhands-on opportunities that encourage scientific inquiry, investigation andexperimentation. Our inquiry-based lessons challenge students as they build,investigate, problem solve, discuss, and evaluate scientific and designprinciples in action. Set requires 2 “AA” batteries, not included.
