Machines Kept Simple

Some machines are quite complex, but without simple machines (like levers, pulleys, and wheels), life wouldn’t be simple at all!

This Unit Kit contains 22 exciting activities to help you explore the functions of simple machines.

You’ll work with simple machines like the lever, the pulley, an inclined plane, a wedge, a wheel & axle, and a screw — and discover exactly how they work. You’ll twist and roll and push and pull until you have a better understanding of how these simple machines make everyone’s life easier.
