Drawbot Classroom Pack Grades: 3-5 Number of Students: 20-40 Highlights: In this classroom pack of 10 drawbots, students will explore physics and engineering concepts by building a simple motor-powered robot in pairs or small groups. Encourage kids to experiment and design! They’ll use critical thinking to make predictions, form observations, and record results. Students will also investigate balanced and unbalanced forces by solving open-ended engineering problems. The project is broken up into multiple suggested class periods and serves 20-40 students. Designed for 3rd to 5th grade classrooms, each pack includes all the materials, instructions, and lesson plans to explore science topics through project-based learning, while aligning with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). They make a perfect gift for teachers, educators, classrooms, maker spaces, after school programs, and camps.
