Whether in the classroom or outdoors, Infinity Tools offer flexible learning opportunities that support both teamwork and independent discovery – without a lot of supervision, but with plenty of room for developing potential.
General application examples
Math and geometry in exciting
Mathematics becomes an exciting adventure with Infinity Tools . Isaac Newton said: "Geometry is, of all the other sciences, the one which most easily leads to infallible certainty."
Beenius allows students to build geometric shapes such as cubes or pyramids to make abstract concepts tangible. These models can be assembled into more complex structures, giving students hands-on experience of how math and geometry are applied in the real world.
Infinity Stonepaper serves as a flexible workspace for developing solutions together. Students learn to apply area and volume calculations to their own designs and discover how geometric principles can be found in architecture and everyday life.
Making natural sciences tangible - for biology, physics, chemistry and co.
The Infinity Tools make teaching biology, chemistry and physics practical and understandable. Beenius makes it easy to build biological structures, chemical compounds and physical models. This allows students to understand organs, molecules or forces in a clear way. Infinity Stonepaper offers a flexible work surface for planning experiments and recording results.
Interdisciplinary natural sciences
Infinity Tools also offer a wide range of application possibilities in interdisciplinary natural sciences, geography or astronomy. Students can build geological formations, planetary systems or climate models with Beenius and put theory into practice. Infinity Stonepaper supports the visualization and adaptation of complex processes, promotes creative thinking and connects theory with the real world.
Projects in free periods
According to estimates by the German Teachers' Association, the number of missed lessons amounts to around 3 to 5 percent of all lessons. This corresponds to several million teaching hours per year.
There are many reasons for class cancellations: teacher absence due to illness, training courses or a lack of substitute teachers.
With Infinity Tools, free periods at school can be made active and stimulating without supervision. Instead of filling the time with passive films, students can explore new challenges in a playful and independent way.
In this way, the free period becomes an opportunity to integrate self-directed project-based learning into everyday lessons.
Environmental education
The Infinity Tools are perfect for sustainability and environmental projects. Beenius , made from sustainable materials, enables students to build models such as energy-efficient houses or ecosystems. With Infinity Stonepaper , a reusable paper made from recycled limestone, they can sketch their concepts in a resource-saving way. This gives them a hands-on experience of how ecological principles are translated into real solutions, while promoting awareness of circular economy and environmental protection.
Learn languages
The Infinity Tools make language and foreign language lessons lively and creative. With Beenius, students can, for example, build characters, places or scenes to tell stories or reenact dialogues. This makes language tangible and promotes understanding of narrative structures and vocabulary in a playful way. In groups, they can also develop interactive language games in which terms in the target language are represented and guessed using constructed symbols - this ensures fun and active participation.
The tools are also extremely helpful in foreign language lessons. With Infinity Stonepaper, students can write down word fields, mind maps or even grammar rules and revise them as often as they like. For younger students, Beenius can be used to create vocabulary games in which words are visualized in the new language. Older students can sketch dialogues on Infinity Stonepaper and practice them directly in role-plays. The combination of creative building and writing ensures that language is learned in a modern and practical way - ideal for all ages and learning levels.

Introduction (5 minutes) : Start with a short introduction to the topic of bridge building. Bridge building apps are among the most popular digital applications for many young people...here it is now being implemented in real life.
If necessary, give students some inspiration from real-life bridges.
Divide into equal groups.
Introduce a challenge: Students are asked to build a bridge that spans either 30 cm, 50 cm or 1 meter and is stable enough to carry small objects (e.g. a calculator).
Preparation (5 minutes) :
Each group measures the distances.
Provide a Beenius set (bamboo sticks and beeswax balls) for each group.
Distribute Infinity Stonepaper and markers to each group to sketch ideas and take notes.
Bridge Building Challenge (20 minutes) :
Provide a Beenius set (bamboo sticks and beeswax balls) for each group.
The students begin to build their bridges with Beenius.
During construction, students try out different approaches, adapt their designs and learn in a playful way how stability and weight distribution work.
Infinity Stonepaper helps students quickly sketch ideas and plan the structure.
Presentation and reflection (10 minutes) :
Once the bridges are finished, each group presents their construction and tests it by placing a small object (e.g. a calculator) on top.
The teacher moderates the presentation and gives feedback on construction, stability and creativity.
Final reflection: What did the students learn about bridge building, teamwork and physics principles?
Clean up (5 minutes) :
The groups dismantle their bridges, stow the Beenius rods and wax in the bags. Infinity Stonepaper is wiped off and rolled up.
Example: The lever law (45 minutes)
Learning objective: Students understand the lever law (force x force arm = load x load arm) and apply it practically by building and testing various lever constructions with Beenius.
Preparation:
- Beenius sets for each group to build lever models.
- Infinity Stonepaper and markers for sketching lever models and calculations.
- Small weights (e.g. calculators, rulers) to load the levers.
Implementation:
- Introduction (5 minutes) :
Briefly explain the law of the lever: “A lever is a simple mechanical tool in which a smaller force can move a larger load if the lever arm is long enough.”
Draw a simple lever model on Infinity Stonepaper and illustrate the principle using the force arm and the load arm.
2. Planning and sketching (10 minutes) :
The students form groups and are given the task of building a functioning lever with Beenius.
On Infinity Stonepaper, they plan their lever by sketching the force and load arm and estimating the weight of the load.
Each group decides whether they want to build a one-sided or two-sided lever.
3. Construction and experimentation (15 minutes) :
The students implement their lever plan with Beenius. They attach the rods, objects and wax connections so that the lever is stable and can be tested.
Once the levers are finished, they test their models with different weights, observing how the position of the force arm affects the force required.
They record their observations on Infinity Stonepaper and use the law of levers to calculate whether their models conform to the rules of physics.
4. Presentation and reflection (10 minutes) :
Each group presents their lever, explains the construction and shows how the lever works.
The students compare their calculations and observe which levers were particularly efficient and why.
Finally, the students briefly reflect on what they have learned about the lever law and its application.
5. Clean up (5 minutes) :
The Beenius models are disassembled, rods and wax are packed into the bags and Infinity Stonepaper is wiped off.
