Generating Electricity with Wind— Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
Capture the energy of the wind and convert it to electricity! First, students learn how to build a rotor and blade assembly from the materials provided. After making observa- tions and analyzing data from the preliminary tests, students brainstorm and decide how to make adjustments to enhance their designs. Complete for 30 students working in pairs and two testing stations.

Simple Circuits—
Super Value Laboratory Kit
Do your students know how to connect a series circuit? What about a parallel circuit? Students use lightbulbs and alligator-clipped wires to build simple series and parallel circuits and study their characteristics. Includes complete instructions and valuable Teacher Notes with teaching tips, sample data and answers to student questions. Super Value Kit is complete four groups of students, and all materials are reusable.
AP6302 I $46.55
Investigating Electricity— Activity-Stations Kit
Discover the basic principles of electric-
ity with this “series” of four engaging, hands-on experiments. Explore the concepts of electric current and voltage in series and parallel circuits. Using friction rods, friction pads and an electroscope, learn about electrostatics. Then compare different elec- trochemical cells to determine which one produces the most electricity. Finally, deter- mine how the thickness and length of a wire affect its electrical resistance.

Snap Circuits®
More than 300 electronic devices can be designed, including an AM radio, flashlight, burglar alarm, blinkers, voice-activated devices and electronic games. Durable plastic modules easily clip together and mount on a plastic “circuit” board—no addi- tional tools or soldering are required. All
the components and instruction diagrams are color-coded so building is a snap! Instruction manual book provided.
AP6531 I $72.90
Build a Simple Motor—
Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
Challenge your students to build a simple motor with only three components: a battery, a piece of copper wire and a strong magnet! In this design challenge, students recreate a simple model of Faraday’s device that operates on electromagnetic principles. Once success is achieved, science and art are combined as students design and build a more creative motor. Complete for 10 student groups.
