Bending Stuff with Blockey

"I love Blocky. I wish I could take him home.  I never knew engineering could be so fun!"  

 

Student quote after completing this lab, 

Del Rio Elementary.

Students learn about force in a fun and unforgettable way as they bend and break stuff. Show you class a short film on changing the tire on a car and your students will learn the trick behind mechanical advantage and handle length.
