Nasco Bucket of Volts
Grades 7-12.
For your STEM curriculum.
Turn leveled instruction into an electrifying experience! Teaching electricity is made easy with this efficient kit. Students will test the voltage of cells and batteries, build and test different kinds of circuits and an electromagnet, and test the conductivity of common objects. Groups can work at their own pace, and extra activities are included to keep fast students learning. Each of the seven trays in the storage bucket contains all the components that two groups will need to complete the four included labs and additional optional experiments. No nuts, bolts, tools, or battery holders required. Just give a tray to a group and they are ready to work!

Advantages of The Ultimate Electricity Kit
:
- Purchasing as a kit saves money by buying components in bulk
- Everything is reusable
- All components are the best quality available
- Complete materials for 28 students (14 pairs) is provided and easily expanded by either putting three students in some groups or adding additional materials
- Extremely fast construction of circuits using magnetic wire leads (Magleads)
- No more nuts and bolts or tools (screwdrivers, wire strippers) required
- No battery holders needed
- The optional
Magna battery leads
can be used for all sizes of batteries - Magnetic/alligator clip lead
MagnaClip
adapts system to all binding posts and wires that you may already have - Leveled activities keep fast students learning while others finish lab
