fischertechnik Class Set Gears

fischertechnik class set of gear technology for primary school

Demonstrate the principles of different types of gears at primary level for clear, long-term understanding.

How does a bevel gear, belt drive or rack and pinion gear work? What happens when the gearing changes? These and many other questions can be explored by young researchers using models and experiments. The models can be set up quickly and easily in the classroom and are ideal for use with pre-prepared tasks and solutions.

The class set contains 16 individual component sets and is suitable for 30 students and one teacher, for example. The sets can be used to build 15 models and perform 12 experiments.

Accompanying teaching material:

The fischertechnik class sets include extensive, freely accessible teaching materials. These have been developed in conjunction with teacher training institutions, teachers and educationalists, and are ideal for teaching requirements. In addition to an introduction to the topic, lesson plans with task sheets and educational plan references are available.

The Topic Introduction provides ideal content for lesson preparation and can be integrated into lessons. The topics covered include definitions, history, basic knowledge and much more besides.

The teaching materials include an overview of the learning objectives, the time required for each task, and the respective curriculum references for individual federal states in Germany.

To go with each topic from the curriculum, various tasks are included, each featuring different experiments.
These tasks are subdivided into a construction task, thematic task and experimentation task. This is how you progress from building, to learning technical content, to applying the knowledge you've gained.
