Extra Gear Kits

Description

In this Workshop, Makers will manipulate gears, observe how they interlock, learn about torque and how it is used to turn gears, and arrange the gears on their board to make an interactive display. They will explore how simple machines like the wheel and axle in the gear mechanism illustrate leverage. Creators will see how the difference in size changes the way the gear train works, either generating more force, or more speed. They will apply math concepts to what they have observed with ratios. And finally, Creators will examine how these concepts apply to real life, as they identify gears and simple or complex machines in their environments.  CURRICULUM IS SOLD SEPARATELY. Be sure to also add it to your cart.

Included Materials: 

  • Wooden Gear Board
  • Gears (3 Medium, 2 Small, 2 Large)
  •  2 Bolts
  •  2 Nuts
  • 7 Plastic Pegs
  • Glue Dots
  •  Standing Figure Template
  •  3 Paint Markers

Each kit is designed for one student to use for 2, one-hour classes. Be sure to follow the curriculum to receive the full education value from the project.
