Help give my students the ability to create vehicles of different types to test their engineering design skills. Students will be able to use their creativity to make all different types of vehicles and test for different variables.
Students still love using LEGO in middle school and it is such an excellent tool to keep kids engaged in learning!
With these sets of LEGO wheels we will have enough to create many types of racers, such as 'LEGO Wind Racers' powered by a fan. We also can create vehicles that will be motorized with fan power to propel our designs down the hall. LEGO is great for any age and helping us with a class set of wheels would be amazing!
