TeacherGeek® Electromagnetic Crane Kit, Pack of 10
The TeacherGeek® Electromagnetic Crane Kit offers the classic activity of designing a crane but with a "green" twist—tailor the design to solve recycling and waste disposal issues. Students build and experiment with an electromagnet, adding a crane mechanism for control. They innovate by evolving their creations through the engineering and design process, using TeacherGeek® components, recycling bin materials (and possibly 3-D printed elements), and much more.
Compete against other cranes in exciting, diverse challenges, including a multi-player board game. Create a tournament or simply watch as your classroom is engaged in exploring exciting STEM activities. Learn about electromagnetism, magnetic fields, and simple machines in this fun activity. Build once, tinker forever. Pack of 10 kits.
