The Ultimate Renewable Energy Station

Power Your Classroom with the Future of Energy!

The STEM CLUB Renewable Energy Bundle is a comprehensive solution for schools and libraries looking to teach sustainability. Combining the mechanical precision of Thames & Kosmos with the award-winning snap-together ease of Snap Circuits, this bundle allows students to build, test, and master green technology.

Key Features for Educators:

• Hands-on Physics: Explore aerodynamics, torque, and gear ratios with the Wind Turbine.

• Modular Electronics: No tools or soldering required. Snap Circuits allow for fast, frustration-free circuit building.

• Multi-Student Engagement: Large enough for small groups to collaborate on different parts of the "energy grid."

• Curriculum Aligned: Perfect for Year 5–8 Earth & Space Sciences and Physical Sciences (ACARA).

Institutional Benefits:

• Durable Materials: High-quality components designed for repeated classroom use.

• Comprehensive Manuals: Includes two full-color, illustrated manuals with over 150 combined experiments.

Focus: Sustainable Engineering, Wind Power, and Clean Grid Technology.

What’s in the Bundle?

1. 1x Thames & Kosmos – Wind Power (V4.0):

   • The Machine: A large-scale, functional wind turbine.

   • The Lesson: Students build the turbine, adjust the blade angles to maximize efficiency, and generate real electricity to charge a battery or light an LED.

2. 1x Snap Circuits – Green Energy Lab:

   • The Grid: Over 125 projects focusing on solar, wind, and hand-crank power.

   • The Lesson: Students learn how to manage the energy they’ve generated. They explore how to store power and use it to run FM radios, fans, and digital clocks.

The "STEM CLUB" Learning Pathway

This bundle is unique because it follows the "Source to Socket" journey:

• Step 1 (Source): Use the Thames & Kosmos Wind Power kit to capture energy from the wind (mechanical to electrical).

• Step 2 (Storage/Usage): Connect those concepts to the Snap Circuits Green Energy Lab to see how that power moves through a circuit board (electronics).

The Ideal Capacity: 4 to 6 Students 

Because this bundle contains two major kits (the Thames & Kosmos Turbine and the Snap Circuits Green Energy Lab), the best way to run this is by splitting a small group into two "Engineering Teams."

Team Breakdown (Station Rotation)

To maximize engagement, I recommend a "Station Rotation" model for a group of 6 students:

• Team A: The Turbine Engineers (3 Students)

  • Student 1: Lead Builder (Follows manual)

  • Student 2: Aerodynamics Specialist (Adjusts blade pitch/angles)

  • Student 3: Data Logger (Uses the Energy Auditor Worksheet)

• Team B: The Grid Specialists (3 Students)

  • Student 1: Circuit Architect (Places Snap modules)

  • Student 2: Power Manager (Handles the solar cell/hand crank)

  • Student 3: Quality Control (Checks connections and polarity)

Halfway through the session (after 25-30 mins), the teams swap stations.
