LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime Set

The SPIKE Prime set includes over 500 beautifully designed LEGO Technic elements in a vibrant colour palette; the innovative elements provide an easy and adaptable building experience for all students. With the SPIKE Prime Hub, motors, and sensors your students can create a variety of smart inventions while applying and analysing real world data.

Each SPIKE Prime set is perfect for 2 students to share; they will enjoy getting hands-on as they collaborate, experiment, debug and have fun together! The durable, stackable storage box also keeps the equipment safe and the sorting trays help keep the elements organised – a nifty solution for resource management in a busy classroom!

New elements include:

· A new 3×3 frame is a great spacing element and allows for easy change in the direction of the build
· A new 2×4 brick has a cross axle hole that lets you connect Technic and LEGO System elements for more fun and creative builds, opening up access to your entire LEGO collection
· A new base plate provides an excellent prototyping surface – offered for the first time in Technic
· New frames help you start building right away and build bigger models in no time
· New wheels for easy mounting with motors, precise turns and improved manoeuvrability
· New wire clips in an assortment of colours really help to keep cable wires tidy!
