Organized Engineering Is Proactive Intelligence

Help me give my students the support for keeping all of the LEGO Robotics Inventor kits together to prevent missing pieces from creating incomplete sets and to make it simpler for kids to locate the pieces they need.

My Project

If you are able to assist our elementary school while also assisting students in honing their engineering skills in a proactive and organized manner using organizing bins. These containers will make it easier for students in grades K–5 to quickly and efficiently assemble the LEGO robot of their choice without having to rummage through numerous boxes and other disorganized compartments. Students will learn the minimalistic and simplified approach to the power of maintaining an organized space to help increase student productivity by having a traveling bin with organized spots where everything has a place.  With over 500 pieces in the LEGO Mindstorms Inventor kit, even for older students it can be difficult to keep their workspace organized due to missing pieces or a lack of patience to learn the helpful rhythm that comes with being organized from the beginning.
