The Construct A Clock kit gives students a hands-on introduction to timekeeping, gears, and mechanical engineering. With easy-to-follow instructions, children assemble a functionin g clock while exploring how gear trains and levers interact to regulate movement. This engaging activity encourages curiosity, problem-solving, and an understanding of real-world mechanisms. Why this product is beneficial for educational use: Supports STEM learning through mechanical construction. Reinforces mathematical concepts of time and measurement. Develops fine motor skills and sequencing logic. Fosters student engagement through personal accomplishment. Classroom ideas: Incorporate into lessons about time, clock reading, and historical timekeeping devices. Use to explore engineering concepts like gear ratios and torque. Challenge students to predict how changing one gear affects the movement. Allow students to decorate and personalise their clocks after construction. Specifications: Dimensions: 21.6cm x 20cm x 3.8cm Includes all parts for a working clock assembly Suitable for cross-curricular activities in STEM and maths Recommended age: Middle primary and above Show more
