Through constructing their own anti-gravity floating table, students explore the concepts of magnetic levitation, balance, stability, and structural engineering. They will learn how opposing magnetic forces can counteract gravity, develop problem-solving skills as they troubleshoot alignment and weight distribution, and gain practical experience in following technical instructions. The activity also fosters creativity as students customise their table's appearance, reinforcing the iterative design process central to STEM education.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"stem-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis product is designed for students in Years 5 to 10, with adaptable complexity for different learning levels. It is suitable for use in Science, Design and Technologies, and STEM-focused classes. The project aligns well with cross-curricular teaching, integrating concepts from physics, mathematics, and engineering design. Teachers can use it as a standalone classroom activity, a group project, or an extension task for high-achieving students.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"stem-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eAustralian Curriculum Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis resource supports the Australian Curriculum for Science and Design and Technologies (F-10). In Science, it addresses content descriptions related to forces and motion (Year 4-6), energy transfer (Year 6-8), and the application of scientific understanding to solve problems (Year 7-10). In Design and Technologies, it links to processes and production skills, including generating and communicating design ideas, selecting materials, and evaluating products. The project also supports the STEM F-10 integrated approach by encouraging inquiry, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"stem-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eCoding Platform\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eNo coding required. This product focuses on hands-on construction and physical science concepts, making it accessible for students without prior programming experience. Teachers can optionally extend the activity by integrating coding challenges, such as using microcontrollers to measure magnetic field strength or automate levitation adjustments, but this is not necessary for the core learning experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"stem-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach kit contains all components needed to build a working anti-gravity floating table, including pre-cut wooden or acrylic base and table parts, high-strength neodymium magnets, adhesive mounting materials, alignment guides, and detailed step-by-step instructions. The kit is designed for easy assembly with minimal additional tools, typically requiring only a ruler and a small screwdriver (not included). Each kit supports one student or a small group working collaboratively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"stem-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eClassroom Setup \u0026amp; Requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTo implement this activity, each student or group requires a flat, stable work surface such as a desk or table. The project takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes to complete, depending on student age and experience. Teachers should allow time for initial instruction, construction, testing, and troubleshooting. No specialised equipment is needed, but access to a whiteboard or projector for demonstrating key concepts is helpful. The kit is non-digital and does not require computers, tablets, or internet access, making it ideal for classrooms with limited technology resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv class=\"stem-section\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eSupport \u0026amp; Warranty\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAll Stemology products come with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
