Let’s Explore With LEGOs

Help me give my students Legos for education to support their learning of STEM.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Drexler's classroom raised $782

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project is designed to support our students’ STEM learning through the use of LEGO education materials.

“Learning through play has emerged as an important strategy to promote student engagement, inclusion, and holistic skills development.” Our students will engage in real-world problem solving strategies through creative STEM challenge tasks.

They will use the LEGOs to work in cooperative teams to complete a task in order to solve a problem.

The LEGOs will enable our students to explore and learn through play to improve their problem solving skills.

Our students look forward to being able to dig into STEM investigations with LEGOs!
