curricula guides) class room focused materials:

102 page lesson plan guide, no parts
Technic I Teachers Guide (W771035): $13.25
48-page guide summarizes principles from activity card models and suggests
experiments and further activities.
They also have parts sets (one student) for specific topics: $17.25 each
Technic Gears Mini Set W779610
Technic Levers Mini Set W779612
Technic Pulleys Mini Set W779614
Technic Wheels and Axles Mini Set W779616
Go to: http://pitsco-legodacta-store.com/index.htm
The above references are under "Machines & Robots" and then "Technic Basics"
and "Technic Minisets".

bring them together for a finale.
