Help me give my students STEM opportunities by adding LEGOs to our learning space, which will enhance students' creativity and allow them to have the opportunity to improve teamwork and problem-solving skills.

My Project
My class is full of motivated and excited 21st-century learners. The students are inquisitive and enjoy finding solutions to challenging situations. We are fortunate to have 1:1 Chromebooks, and try to incorporate them throughout our curriculum in as many creative ways as possible. These are especially useful when we begin our LEGO Robotics unit, which requires the students to code and build their Lego world in order to solve a real-life problem. We believe in a growth mindset and love learning from our mistakes.
My students are eager learners and quick to accept any STEM challenge, especially with LEGOs.
My creative class enjoys collaborating through project-based learning, and finding new ways to demonstrate their knowledge.
We are a diverse class made up of English Learners, and students of various academic levels. These LEGO sets will be used during our weekly STEM time and during LEGO Robotics.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
