Prop Racer Pack

Being twisted is a good thing for this activity! Students build a racer from laser-cut parts and then use the power in a twisted rubber band motor to run the propeller, making the car speed off! This is a great way to start teaching torsion and potential energy.

EDGEucating Vetted Product

We know from personal experience that teachers sometimes feel overwhelmed by the multitude of resources available. It can take a tremendous amount of time to sift through and locate the right edtech products to use in the classroom.

To help teachers make better use of their time and resources we have vetted and curated for you this collection of educational resources to use in your classroom.

EDGEucating only recommends products that we have fully vetted and believe in as part of our endorsed products list. We want this to be a place where you can purchase with confidence!  As educators, we understand the frustration of buying a product that doesn’t live up to its promises.  Our own experiences fueled our desire to start EDGEucating and begin vetting products so that this doesn’t happen to other educators.  
This is a FREE resource for educators!  The vendors pay our fees and there is no pass-through cost for you.
In addition to vetting the products, we have secured agreements with trusted vendors who offer excellent customer service.
