The K'NEX Education Intro to Structures: Bridges set is designed to introduce students in grades 3-5 to the history, function, structural design, geometry and strength of bridges while providing opportunities for them to acquire skills using a hands-on, inquiry-based approach to information and concepts. This K'NEX Education Set includes 207 K'NEX parts, building instructions, and a comprehensive Teacher's Guide, all packaged in a strong plastic tray with a snap-on lid for easy classroom storage. There's enough to build 13 fully-functioning models of real world structures including suspension, truss, and arch bridges, and the set supports 2-3 students working in teams. The Teacher's Guide (on CD) provides the information and resources required to build your students' understanding of scientific, technical and design concepts and to channel their inquiries into active and meaningful learning experiences. This set is aligned to STEM standards and Common Core Mathematics. STEM Education focuses on science, technology, engineering and mathematics concepts taught through problem-solving, discovery, exploratory learning and critical thinking. STEM Education requires students to be active participants in the learning process. K'NEX models offer hands-on opportunities that encourage scientific inquiry, investigation and experimentation. Our inquiry-based lessons challenge students as they build, investigate, problem solve, discuss, and evaluate scientific and design principles in action.From the ManufacturerNo more toothpicks and glue!
