TeacherGeek Air Racer Activity

Description

Create your own electric fan car by first constructing a frame, then powering up a motor, and finally experimenting with different propeller blade designs. The TeacherGeek build system makes it simple to tinker and redesign, allowing students to evolve their racer as they experiment and learn.

Each Air Racer Activity Pack comes with a printed Go-Guide to get kids started and inspire them to make their own unique racers. TeacherGeek also offers free science labs and engineering challenges to deepen student's understanding and challenge them even further as they explore topics such as propeller design and electricity.

Educational Goals:

• Utilize the design and engineering process
