Let get logical! Using bricks to enhance learning, students explore communication concepts and teamwork. Lessons include social studies, geography, history, and biology topics and challenge students to build, communicate, and learn together. Brain-bending logic puzzles build on existing skills and develop new problem solving tactics.
Exciting STEM concepts are introduced throughout each lesson, including science and engineering processes. Challenges include constructing builds to withstand outside forces, using logic to determine patterns, and translating abstract concepts into concrete models.
