My Project

At IMSA West, a STEM certified school, our students are driven by science and technology. They show so much interest when it comes to inventing new technology that helps the world. Our science class usually involves talking about their ideas that solve problems!

The students would love to have more equipment that uses technology so that they can develop their invention ideas.

I have provided my Lego collection for them to use miscellaneous pieces to create, but the Lego education sets would allow them to take it even further.

We have a big focus on science and technology at IMSA West, and the students really love Lego in 3rd and 4th grade. I see how using them has created more imagination, bigger dreams, and more interest in coming to school!
