Rubber Band Racer STEM Box

Rubber Band Racer STEM Box

Rubber Band Racer KS2 students will explore STEM, through stories about a real-world challenge. One box provides all the equipment you need for approximately 5-6 hours which equals 1 day or 1 hour a week for half a term of activity time for a class of 30. There are items in the box which can then be re-used for other classes, and each box maps onto the KS2 STEM curriculum, making this a valuable resource for any school.

**Allergen Information** Rubber Band Racer contains rubber bands which contain LATEX.

If you have any questions about the box contents please email the team help@curiosity-box.com

The Story:

Jedda is 11 and lives in the outback in Australia, 500 miles from the nearest town. Her home is a cattle ranch with thousands of cows. She is so far away she goes to the “School of the air” where she tunes into the radio to do her lessons with a teacher in a school thousands of miles away. It can get really lonely out there and Jedda’s best friend Coen lives on a farm about 15 miles away. She needs to build a car that doesn’t need fuel and is really cheap to make, can you help her test her prototype?
