Letting Their Imaginations Build With LEGOS

Help me give my students the creativity that their brains have and need by building with Legos.

My Project

Building with Legos expands their imaginations and helps to create positive interactions with their peers. Working together to build animals, structures and objects.

We will work on group building projects as well as students will get the opportunity to work individually on creating projects.

My students come from a Multi-cultural, Socio-economical background and don't have the means to buy LEGOS, so having an opportunity to work directly with LEGOS will be a great experience for them. Using their mindful thinking also helps to relieve stress and anxiety and to provide an outlet of creativity.
