image of K'NEX Into to Simple Machines: Gears
FEATURED PRODUCT!

K'NEX Into to Simple Machines: Gears builds six different real models with building instructions for each model. Actual photos and key facts are included.

The models demonstrate 2 crown gear examples, 2 spur gear examples, and 2 sprocket gear examples. There are 182 pieces that will enable 2 - 3 students to work on a team.

Grades 3-5. All the pieces come in a strong plastic storage case with dividers. Pieces included in set: 8 individual intro to simple machines and gears sets, The 36-page teacher's guide contains 4 gear lessons with extension activities.

Besides the items listed below, here are much more machine items that you can use to create a science project.
 

 

How can you use engines motors gears pumps and other supplies in creative science fair projects? Here are a few ideas to consider.

  • A kit like the K'NEX intro to simple machines can introduce you to a variety of machine parts - from small engines to sprocket gears, crown gears, and more! Things that spin and things that move about can both be built using this kit. Your science project could study the workings of one particular kind of machine - a vehicle or a stationary device. You could build a model of the machine you've researched using the K'NEX kit.

  • Engines motors gears pumps and other products can be used in a radio controlled car kit to assemble your very own functional RC vehicle. This project will teach you a huge amount of information about the insides of a functional car - including the workings of the car's electric motor. Your project can involve both constructing the vehicle and studying the principles that make it go.

  • Your project could also focus on the workings of engines themselves. The Simplified Stirling Engine kit uses a basic 19th century engine design to illustrate the fundamental aspects of an engine. You'll get to assemble the rudimentary Stirling Engine and in the process learn about the role each component plays. If you want, your project could go on to designing similar engines with slight modifications.

    • Remember that engines motors gears pumps and other machines constitute a vast portion of technologies that we observe around us. Studying any one of these could become the motivating idea for award winning science projects. Take a look at some more ideas for science projects and consider the wonderful possibilities.
