  Discovery Pack; Gyroscope, Prism and Magnets

  $23.95 Add to cart

  A combination of three great discovery toys!

  While Sir Isaac Newton dabbled with a diversity of science phenomena, the Englishman is best known for his explanations of gravity and his studies of light. The scientific instruments in this kit were part of Newton’s greatest work.

  The Gyroscope defies gravity. The Prism opens your eyes to reveal myriad colors blended and hidden within light. Newton used Magnetics in many experiments and they are linked closely to understanding both gravity and light.

  Be amazed, be challenged! What will you discover about gravity, mass, centrifugal movement light spectrum, and electromagnetism?

  STEM Starters: Paper Circuits

  $24.85 Add to cart

  This Paper Circuits activity kit challenges students to create a working circuit. The essential pieces—copper tape, coin batteries, and LED lights—are provided; it’s up to the young scientists to determine what type of structure to build and how they can bring it to life with lights. Includes enough materials to begin 6 paper circuits. 24 total pieces. Ages 14+.

  STEM Starters provide students with essential tools to complete hands-on projects. When combined with everyday items, these materials can be used to design and execute a project using creative exploration and the engineering design process. By approaching a problem or a challenge with this thought process, children are able to make educated guesses, problem-solve, and learn without the fear of making a mistake. Perfect for individuals or small groups.

  From Sunshine to Light Bulb

  $9.95 Add to cart

  What happens when you flip a light switch or press the power button on the TV? Electricity flows to the device and it turns on. Most of us use electrical gadgets all day, every day, without thinking about it. This book follows the journey from source to resource of solar power, one of the most exciting forms of renewable energy today. Readers will learn how electricity is made and collected directly from the sun and how it reaches us to power our modern world. Other sources of energy are also examined, as well as how grids work to move electricity across land and sea, and how it is fed into our homes. Real-world examples look at solar farms, solar furnaces, solar towers, and even solar transportation. With the world’s nonrenewable resources such as oil running out, the advantages and disadvantages of solar power as a renewable alternative are discussed.
