Teachables Trundle Wheel - Plastic, Set of 10

Measuring long distances is made efficient and engaging with this set of 10 plastic trundle wheels, designed for ease of use in classroom, outdoor, or field-based learning. Each trundle wheel is equipped with a loud clicking device that can be set to three positions: off, every 10 cm, or every metre, allowing flexibility for different measuring activities.

The wheel can be used in either direction or produces an audible click with every full rotation, helping students track distance by counting clicks. A clear arrow indicator marks both starting and ending positions, while the adjustable handle accommodates users of all heights—whether child or adult—and is detachable for easy storage and portability. This durable and practical tool is perfect for supporting lessons in mathematics, science, and physical education.
