My Project

I have students who are always building and tinkering. They love magnatiles, LEGOs and any building materials they can get their hands on. Building is a way of expressing themselves, but also helps with self regulation.

My students absolutely love LEGOs and are highly motivated to create, design and participate in imaginary play with their LEGO creations.

I want to give my students new kits that will promote teamwork and engineering skills. These kits also have directions for students to follow which will promote direction following and critical problem solving.
