I would like to provide my students with learning stations where they can learn a variety of skills through STEAM activities. The lessons and activities provided by LEGO WeDo teach STEAM concepts as well as social emotional skills, collaboration, creative thinking, problem-solving, and perseverance. These are skills that my students need for school, as well as in their lives. The LEGO WeDo kits will provide my students with opportunities to learn through engaging hands-on challenges that will promote investigating, perseverance, collaboration, and discovery. Using LEGOS, a toy my students love, will prove to be a successful learning tool in the areas of mathematics, science, social studies, writing, and reading. Lessons involving hands-on learning opportunities benefit all students, but especially students who may have needs. Through hands-on learning activities, I have seen positive growth in my students. I have seen students communicate with others who have not in the past as well as students showing emotional control when actively engaged in hands-on learning. I have seen such a difference in student engagement when linking STEAM activities to other academic content areas. The hands-on learning using LEGO WeDos will broaden outside of our classroom as other teachers and classes will get to experience the excitement of STEAM learning. Thank you for helping my students learn by doing through using LEGO Education We Do kits!
