"In the course of the ""MINT Kits for Kids"" project secondary schools from Hungary, Bulgaria, Italy, Poland and Germany developed learning units for partner primary schools. In the field of Mathematics, ICT, Natural Sciences and Technology there is a lack of available talent among the young people in the European Union. So our idea was to foster learning in MINT subjects at primary schools by making scientific and technological learning media available to young children. Together we developed integrated learning units consisting of mechanical and electrical devices or software and exercises together with a teaching plan for the teachers.The Bulgarian partner developed a 'Fun-Math-Kit', a mathematical puzzle.The Hungarian school produced an 'Electromagnetic Kit', explaining electro magnetism to primary school students.The Italian school worked on a 'Robot Kit for Geometry', and the German school developed a 'Light Reflection Kit' and a 'Robot Arm Kit'.Throughout the project the kits were developed within the normal lessons as well as during longer project phases, during meetings and one-week-learning activities. All schools brought in different qualifications and competences with which they helped the other partners sharing best practice from all countries.In a final presentation in Germany all kits were presented by the students of the primary and the secondary schools together. A circuit with stops for each kit was installed in the auditorium so that a wider public could watch the kids working with the kits."
