TeacherGeek Toy Design Workshop
Give toys a Maker Space twist with TeacherGeek, as kids design and engineer their own unique, animated pull-toys. They move as they roll! Watch as tails wag, heads bob, hands wave or wrestlers brawl in a mechanical fracas. Free NGSS | ITEAA aligned document resources guide kids through the engineering & design process, allowing them to brainstorm, build, iterate and re-design innovative mechanisms. They can construct, play, then design something entirely new with the existing components. An excellent introduction to marketing and entrepreneurship, allowing kids to develop brand identities, logos, store fronts and sale pitches for their novel "product lines." An optional lab explores engineering with linkages. The Toy Design Workshop is a truly comprehensive and amazing STEAM activity for kids (and adults) of all ages. Students need TeacherGeek tool sets for construction. Lesson plans available for grades 3-5.
