My Project

The LEGO Brick Box, magnetic tiles, and K'Nex will challenge students to plan, design, and build various structures and help students engage in hands-on investigation of STEM concepts using everyday themes.

Help me give them a hands-on experience that encourages learning and gets the creativity flowing with these STEM-building resources!

Children learn best when engaged in more fun, in more familiar territory like games and toys connecting to different subjects! These LEGO blocks are great for young children to develop dexterity and fine motor strength. Students will spend hours building and creating with this large set of LEGO blocks. There are tons of colors and sizes included so students can explore and build. The magnetic blocks are easy to put together and stay pretty well in the structure. Little learners will like to create with the interlocking discs. They are an interesting shape and connect in ways that are different than traditional building blocks.

In addition to learning design engineering concepts, students will also develop their literacy, math, and social-emotional skills as they turn concepts into reality. Help me develop these students into young thinkers by sparking creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking. Watch student engagement and confidence soar! Play and exploration build successful life-long learners! Let's get these items in our STEM lab!
