We encounter simple machines everywhere in our everyday lives. They help
us to do work using as little effort as possible. We will teach the
basic mechanical and technical principles and interactions of forces
using illustrative models that can be set up quickly. Pupils will
consolidate what they learn in a playful way by exploring these
principles and practical examples. The crowning glory of this
construction kit is the relay machine that passes a ball back and forth.
This is something the whole class can get involved in and combine the
principles of what they have learned across the different modules with
the fun of building and playing. What is more: these activities help to
promote both social and fine motor skills as well.

Accompanying teaching material:
fischertechnik Education products include comprehensive, freely accessible teaching materials. These have been developed together with teacher training colleges, teachers and didacticians and are ideally suited to the needs of the classroom. In addition to the topic introduction, lesson plans with task sheets and educational plan references are available.
- The topic introduction provides content that can be optimally used for lesson preparation and integrated into the lessons. Definitions, history, basic knowledge and much more are provided.
- The teaching material includes an overview of the learning objectives as well as the time required for the tasks.
- In line with the curriculum-relevant topics, various tasks are included within which different experiments are dealt with.
- The tasks are divided into a construction task, thematic task and experimentation task. In this way, one progresses from building, to learning technical content, to applying the acquired knowledge.
