Knex is an exciting hands-on Engagement for kids. Students can start with basic hand-eye coordination skills and continue to building and testing sophisticated projects. Comprehension and interepretation skills are developed using the 2-D ‘Construction Manuals’ to build 3-D models. All of it fun for kids… Take lots of photos and videos. Documentation and analysis of their work is almost as much fun as the construction itself.
