Motion, Force and Vehicle Investigation Kit

Description
This vehicle investigation kit uses roadways and KEVA models to study wheels, motion, force, direction, and transportation design. Students can build routes and vehicles, then examine how design affects movement through a system.

Parents can ask the learner to create a roadway with turns, ramps, or destinations, build or transform vehicles, and test how each model travels. Children can compare push strength, wheel alignment, path length, and structural features while recording which changes improve performance.

Learners understand that vehicle movement depends on both applied force and engineered features. They gain experience with direction, distance, wheel based motion, route planning, and iterative design.

Learning Goals
¥ Describe how a push or pull initiates vehicle motion
¥ Explore how wheels and roadway design affect travel
¥ Measure or compare distance across different routes
¥ Build a vehicle model for a defined movement task
¥ Modify a design after observing its performance
