My Project

In STEM we are constantly working to make prototypes using LEGO. The ability to have motors to power up those creations will give my students new and exciting opportunities. LEGO Masters is a favorite learning experience for all student in our new building and with motors we will open up more possibilities. While working to create things students learn more that they think, team building, communication, failure, gravity and forces, and pride at a job, not perfect but done well. Building with LEGOS is a common tool for most students but using it in a STEM classroom opens up an understanding of numerous science and engineering principles. .
