Building Bright Minds: Lego Learning in First Grade

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Our first-grade classroom is buzzing with young minds eager to learn through hands-on experiences. To enhance our learning environment, I am seeking support to bring the magic of LEGO into our classroom.
LEGO sets are more than just fun building blocks; they are powerful educational tools that foster creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration.
By incorporating LEGO into our lessons, students will have the opportunity to explore key concepts in subjects like math, science, and literacy in an engaging and interactive way.
In addition, a Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) gift card will help us access high-quality STEM resources, including lesson plans, activities, and printables. These resources will complement our LEGO sets, providing structured yet fun STEM learning opportunities that align with our curriculum.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
