Lego+Education

In 2012 I now have the Lego Matrix group once a week. In this session the boys read, build, redesign, rebuild, talk, share, create, produce, and now reflect on their Lego building. We utilise Lego Technics, Mindstorms NXT, and iPad and Android apps to share this process.

This page is a beginning to some Lego Education tasks that will be done in the Gifted Peer Mentoring times on Friday and also some Science Literacy lessons as well in learning support.

Lego Digital [|Design software] is a free download see here.

I will provide links to the Lego Education website and also to some inspiring Lego ideas from Artistic expression to [|robotics] and Design Technology links-especially linked to the year 3 building unit this term.

For the teaching programming part-here is a document that relates to the [|First Lego League] and the Body Forward Challenge. media type="custom" key="6158559"
