Edu Series: Designed for Deeper STEM Exploration!
Our most versatile kit features multiple track lengths, enabling teachers to adapt experiments to support diverse learning levels within their classroom.
$487.00
This kit includes seven lessons that are aligned to 15 Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for grades 3 and up.
Shorter tracks offer engaging opportunities for students to make science concepts and the scientific process more understandable and relatable through practical application.
Longer tracks give students creative freedom to solve open-ended challenges and allows for a wide range of varied outcomes, promoting critical analysis and genuine discovery.
Attach to any clean, smooth surface, hang the track, and start racing!
Attach to the track to add stability and hold the drop angle.
Dual purpose. Place in middle rail for data collection and consistency across experiments. Use as structure in more creative and complex designs.
Students can use high-performance cars in races and experiments.
Students can change the mass of the racers up to 150% to manipulate variables.
Place the ramps under the track to add stability, change angles and for designing loops.
Its volume markings (mL) help ensure consistency across experiments while actively demonstrating the concept of volume to students.
Students can measure consistent or varied amounts of material (e.g., salt, sand), allowing them to compare and contrast results.
A comprehensive resource that provides educators with lesson plans, background information on physics concepts, and setup instructions for conducting experiments. It is designed to align with educational standards and structure activities to effectively teach principles of force, motion, and energy.
​Blu Track® Edu Advanced Force and Motion STEM Kit is designed for students in Grades 3 and up.
With materials to provide six active learning stations, upper elementary and middle school students can use the scientific process to show understanding of higher level STEM standards. With the graduated bottles, inserts and measuring spoons students can work on preciseness of measuring in fun ways.
The versatility of the kit enables students to engage with six-foot sections of track to focus hands-on with the concepts, data collection, and data analysis to form and support conclusions. The 18-Foot sections allow for more creative and collaborative design and engineering opportunities. Teachers can tailor the experiments and challenges to meet and support a wide variety of learning levels.
This kit can also be used for high school students to apply what they have learned through physics, math, principles of engineering, and life experiences to a challenge. With its open-ended nature, students could use this Blu Track® kit to design multiple solutions to problems or needs incorporating CAD drawing, 3D printing or robotics or designing safe race cars with building blocks (not provided).
