A simple machine Lego kit will provide my students with the opportunity to understand how machines work through a hands-on experience. In third grade, students are learning the design thinking process and the basics of building. Through our innovative curriculum, our next unit is focused on space in which students will be designing a rocket ship that includes simple machines. Not only will these tools be used for academic purposes, but additionally these Legos will be available to students as they develop their social-emotional skills. As a part of our morning routine, students are presented with a challenge to build a model of something that may share information about their passions, background knowledge or feelings. I am excited to use these materials to support a variety of different academic content areas and projects.
