My Project

Gravitrax Marble Run STEM kits will put engineering into the hands for our students. With the Gravitrax interactive track system and marble run, students can design and build their own race tracks and experiment with gravity, magnetism, and kinetics to propel the ball to the finish. With a variety of tiles, levels, tracks and features, students can control the speed of each ball. The open-ended building concept offers endless possibilities to design a different track every time they play.

Students will gain a fun understanding of engineering with these STEM kits.

Our students love to explore and build. This will be the perfect opportunity for them to explore.
