Students explore the strength of shapes with the Tensile Structure STEM Kit. Using string and flexible materials, they build lightweight yet stable structures and observe how tensi on and balance create strong, flexible forms — inspired by real-world architecture like tents and suspension bridges. As they test and refine their builds, students discover key concepts in forces, engineering design, and structural stability through hands-on building and experimentation. Why Teachers Love This Kit: Learning Concepts: Tension, force, balance, and structural stability (NGSS ETS1) NGSS Aligned: Supports Next Generation Science Standards for Engineering Design and Force Setup & Use: Zero prep, ideal for small groups or partner work Show more
