This year I began experimenting with fictional story writing through lego building. This activity helped my students enhance their writing through creativity, details and writing concepts such as dialogue, settings to stories and character traits. I would love to see my students enhance their lego creativity through writing and coding with more extensive lego supplies. I have seen such a difference in my students excitement for writing. They are so motivated to acquire every detail in their writing to make their writing magical. I researched lego coding and I think it would be a great introduction to coding. Computer science is on the rise and I think lego coding will get my young scholars fascinated and engrossed in it.My goal is to link something they love with something they need to learn and master.
