Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are creative, thoughtful and and eager to learn. They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically even though it is tough some days. Truly, they are amazing group of students!

My Project

When kids use LEGO sets, they are introduced to concepts such as cause and effect, sequencing and problem solving. By reading and following instructions they begin to understand cause and effect: if they do things in a certain order, they will produce a certain result.

Also, if they deviate from the instructions, the results change.

Having to figure out a new way to put the pieces together hones problem solving and makes them see there can be more than 1 answer to a problem. They figure out, on their own, what works, what doesn’t, and why. For example, a child may want to build a house with a flat roof, but not have the right pieces and end up building a pointed one.

They also, from looking at the directions, earn to compare and determine what pieces are needed and where they should go. This is great for sharpening cognitive skills and a students self-confidence.
