"I want it to move Miss, but the wheels keep falling off!" How many times have these words been spoken in a primary classroom?

Wheel and axles are usually the first mechanisms children recognise and use, and together with levers, pulleys, cams and gears they become the vowels of a designing and making alphabet.

'Jinks Technology' enables teachers and children to design, make and control the devices they have built using matrials and tools the devices they have built using materials and tools appropriate to the primary classroom. Mechanisms are introduced to learners in a way that encourages them to enjoy what they are doing, experience the excitment of building things that work and to raise their expectations.

Aimed at teachers and parents using cartoon explanations and demonstartions that can be shared with young children.
