What is K'NEX?
What is K'NEX?
K'NEX is one of the most successful construction kits in the world. It is based around a series of "Rods", which can be joined together by "Connectors", such as the one shown in our logo. Once they have mastered using these simple components, children and adults alike can use their
imagination to make potentially millions of different working models.
K'NEX parts are available in three different sizes, namely:
Micro K'NEX - the smallest size of K’NEX part, ideal for building roller coasters. Suitable for ages 7 to 11.
Classic K'NEX - the original size of K'NEX part, which can be used to build a wide range of different models. Suitable for ages 7 to 97.
Kid K'NEX - a version of K'NEX with larger, chunkier Rods and Connectors that small hands can easily join together. Suitable for ages 3 to 7.
Learn how to convert wind and water power into electricity, to drive working K'NEX models.
Builds seven renewable energy models:
Comprehensive instruction book and teacher's guide. Packaged in a strong storage tub with snap-on lid.
Designed to address key science, technology and engineering concepts in the classroom, and provide instructional models that will enhance students' understanding of these important concepts.
The lessons provided in the teacher's guide enable you to offer students a program of study that uses hands-on exploration in conjunction with an engaging inquiry-based approach to learning. As students work cooperatively they are encouraged to work together as they build, investigate, discuss and evaluate concepts, ideas and designs.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Education focuses on concepts taught through problem-solving, discovery, exploratory learning and critical thinking. STEM Education requires students to be active participants in the learning. K'NEX models offer hands-on learning opportunities that encourage scientific inquiry, investigation and experimentation. Our inquiry-based lessons challenge students as they build, investigate, problem solve, discuss, and evaluate scientific and design principles in action.
Supports 2 students.
