My Project

The LEGO building kits and blocks will be used for history and exploratory wheel class, STEAM projects, cooperative learning, early finishers, and students who need stress relief on a rough day - a tremendous social-emotional break.

LEGOs help students follow directions, practice patience, and regulate their emotions.

These aspects of attending school were missing during the COVID years. I am rebuilding their perseverance for long projects.

I am looking forward to having my students participate in an assembly line simulation with factory conditions. Teams will be expected to build various models using a building diagram, but the challenge will be stressful because conditions will not be ideal. Building with minimal light or complete darkness, crowded workspace, missing particular blocks, and more. My students will experience how it was on the assembly line.

LEGOs have many benefits in the classroom. My students who struggle with academics can excel with building. They will work with teammates to complete the challenge. These LEGO kits can be used for many projects in my classroom.
