My Project

These K'NEX building sets come with 480 K’NEX parts and pieces, which include rods and connectors. Students can easily attach the pieces to one another in different ways, allowing them to use their creativity. They can design a variety of shapes, figures, and models.

K’NEX lets builders create different models that can move, like trucks, airplanes, and helicopters, or they can design and construct their own buildings, amusement park rides, and bridges!

I always love looking for engineering materials to provide my STEM students with a variety and these kits would be a perfect addition!
