fischertechnik Class Set Simple Machines

fischertechnik class set Simple machines for primary school

Demonstrate the principles of physics and technology at primary level for clear, long-term understanding.

We encounter simple machines everywhere in our everyday lives. They help us perform our work with as little effort as possible. The basic mechanical and engineering principles and the interaction of forces are taught using illustrative models that can be set up quickly. Exploring these principles and real-world examples helps cement learning through play.
The highlight in this kit is a machine for passing a ball, which involves the whole class contributing different modules and which combines learning about the principles at work with a fun building project. An added bonus is the way the project also promotes social, personal and fine motor skills.

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 10 models and perform 61 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.
