An Impressive Working Model! Turn on the switched battery pack and the centrifugal force swings out the passenger pods.
Students will create an electrical circuit and a mechanism using simple machines that will spin the Fairground Ride. This kit uses a geared motor which can naturally lead to discussions on gear size and ratio verses speed.
Passenger enclosures are created by folding cardstock patterns into solid geometry shapes. Students will also design and apply the graphics and color to the dome and compartments.
Bulk pack for 10 includes:
Requires AA batteries, snips or Kre8® Cutter (283653) as well as assembly, measuring and cutting.
NOTE: Kre8® kits can be assembled in regular classrooms. Kits may require hand tools, advanced assembly and adult supervision.
