Get your motor running as you explore the wonders of magnets Build different kinds of generators and motors–simple ones, a motor-generator pair, a motor with speed control, and a generator that powers an LED Created by a high school science teacher who really knows his stuff. Comprehensive activity guide was carefully designed to boost students’ prior knowledge of the basics of magnetism before they jump into the more complex projects. Aligns with Next Generation Science Standards. Cool STEM activities or science fair project Assembly normally requires teacher or parent participation includes neodymium and ceramic magnets, LED, compasses, iron filings, wood, plastic plates, tubes, straw, wire, spring, nails, screws, nuts, bolts, cork, paper clips, sand paper, and activity guide. Usage tips: Avoid dropping or banging. Ceramic magnets that have been dropped or impacted by force are likely to break or chip. That is a property of the ceramic material. Also, any magnet that is dropped or impacted with a strong force can lose its magnetism–its domains inside can get misaligned. That is a natural property of magnets. Storage: Store all magnets away from electronics, high heat, and direct sunlight. Child safety tested for ages 10+/grades 5+.

Customers say
Customers find the science fundamentals kit a reasonably complete set with well-constructed lessons and demonstrations. However, some customers find the instructions difficult to follow and the models difficult to build. They feel the kit is not worth the money and a waste of time and money.
