What's more fun than LEGO bricks? LEGO bricks give students a chance to show their creativity, think critically, and develop their STEM/STEAM skills. Students can use LEGO bricks to recreate scenes from the books they are reading, work cooperatively, and learn through play. Along with other supplies, LEGO bricks are an important part of any library makerspace and why we would love your help to get some. More than half of our students come from low-income households and do not have regular access to makerspace supplies and books. I appreciate anything you can do to help them learn and grow.
