My Project

Storytelling is a complicated skill that requires students to both empathize with others as well as delve deep into themselves.

Using these colorful LEGOS will help many of my students focus, giving them a hands on way to begin inventing and creating setting and characters.

Many students struggle to describe the way they or others are feeling. Those detail nuances of emotion and the advanced vocabulary it requires will be the focus of this work. English classrooms needs ways to help students develop writing, that is more than practicing writing, and these LEGOs will benefit my students as they develop their writing skills.
