TeacherGeek Electromagnetic Crane
A real pick-me-up, the TeacherGeek Electromagnetic Crane is a classic activity with an utterly "green" twist kids engineer and construct a crane design to innovate recycling and waste disposal! They start by building and experimenting with an electromagnet, later adding a crane mechanism for control. Watch as kids evolve their creations through the engineering & design process, using included extra TeacherGeek components, recycling bin materials, 3-D printed elements and so much more. How many magnetic objects can they sort in two minutes? Compete against other cranes in exciting, diverse challenges - including an incredible multi-player board game that sets mind versus mind. Engineer a tournament or simply watch as your classroom, program, scouting troop or child is blown away by the possibilities of true STEM. Build once, tinker forever. Students need a TeacherGeek tool set to build their crane. Lesson plans available for grades 3-8.
