Science Pathways: Engineering - Makedo Kit

• Grades: Elementary

Highlights:

Empower young creators to transform simple, upcycled materials into functional engineering innovations. The Makedo Kit provides elementary classrooms with child-safe design tools, specialized fasteners, and joining equipment that allow students to repurpose everyday cardboard into 3D structures, prototypes, and imaginative creations. Through hands-on design challenges, students practice spatial reasoning, structural integrity, and iterative problem-solving.

Curriculum or Lesson Topics:

• Engineering Design Process: Iterative prototyping, planning, construction, and testing of structural models using accessible raw materials.

• Structural Integrity & Joinery: Exploring mechanical connections, attachment methods, scoring, and folding techniques to build stable physical structures.

• Upcycling & Sustainable Design: Reusing packaging and discarded materials to create functional designs and solutions.

What's Included:

• 4x Makedo Discover Kits
