Lego Leprechauns Let the Magic Begin!

My students need a Lego WeDo 2 Kit because it not only allows them to build different robotic items, but it also allows them to program them to do different things. There is nothing more exciting!

My Students

We are a Title 1 School, but really try to involve our community and bring as many learning opportunities to our students as we possibly can.

I have a wide range of students in varying degrees of abilities, but the one common factor that they have in common is given the right tools and environment, they all love learning.

The more involved and hands on I can make a project the more engaged and excited the students get about it!

My Project

Bringing Legos into the classroom is exciting to watch. It allows the student to be totally engaged on all levels. It enhances their communication, listening, reason and critical thinking skills to a whole new level.

Legos closes learning gaps for those students that struggle on a day to day basis with academics and allows them to express themselves in new and creative ways.

Legos can be used across the curriculum to extend all academic subjects to a whole new level. I have been more excited to teach and the students have never been more eager to learn than with Legos.
