My Project

So I plan on using the LEGOs for motivation for students to complete their work and then be able to work on LEGO sets. This might be their only place to allow them to work on a complex LEGO. Currently my students are working on the millennium falcon. They love doing it! They are always asking if they can work on it when they finish their assignments. This is making some students excel in turning in their work in order for them to make good grades!! I plan on trying to keep LEGOs around to help keep the motivation real.
