Did a Google search for "electric motor projects for kids", found this one seems to be one that may work for you.

Continue doing a search see if there are others that may help.

You may make a squirrel cage out of wood and lay copper wires along the axis and short circuit at either end. Make a wooden stator and use electromagnets as poles and energise.

Sin, the poster is a female in eighth grade, 13 or 14 years old.

She needs detailed instuctions with photos.

She don't know a stator from a stutter.
