Learning Through LEGO Classic Training Course
How LEGO Redefine Learning in 3 Minutes?
Introducing
LEGO Classic
LEGO Classic is a concept designed to excite and motivate you to attain the skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary for success in later life.
Six colours red, orange, yellow, green, dark blue, light blue 2x4s
bright to add colour to the child’s day
different except for 2 shades of blue – light / dark
enables learning of colours; colour matching; colour associations
all children receive same 6 colours = no fighting; allows for mixing of the bricks /
working in groups and pooling bricks together; easy to collect own six colours again
So easy to manage ~ children keep their 6 bricks on their own table / in chairbag (if no tables),
or in a container which is always readily available.
No need to unpack heaps of DUPLO which may be disruptive — six bricks on desk is easy to access
Easy to control ~ at end of day each child needs to make sure that they have their six bricks on their desk,
(or in the container) ready for the next day.
Six bricks allows children to work outside their field of vision which enables them to work / build in the abstract (encourage “out of
the box” thinkers); develops peripheral vision – vital skill for reading fluency.
- at the end of a day to simply unwind and have a little bit of fun while you bond with your classmates
- first thing in the morning to sharpen your brain & get you ready for learning
- just after break to re-focus attention and settle down
- as a “brain-break” during the course of a school day ~ stop whatever you are doing and re-energise the brain as you play!
- as “brain-gym” in any of the learning areas to develop working memory; inhibitory control & cognitive flexibility
- as motivation to pay attention & focus for a lesson that is to follow
- at any time during the day as a concrete tool for children to manipulate in order to develop critical learning skills
- at any time during the day as a concrete tool for children to grasp concepts and gain understanding of new learning
- when children have finished their set tasks, they could build for fun or reinforce & consolidate their learning
- at any time during the day child can use their bricks to help them work out a problem or demonstrate an idea
Once Six Bricks activities become a daily habit, a whole lot of reinforcement of learning takes place in a fun and playful way, which children need!
Children grow and develop at different rates – it is so easy to adapt Six Bricks activities to any child’s level, thereby making the activities, suitably challenging for all.
Six Bricks activities caters for different learning styles by using many different ways to teach – it caters for the visual learner; the auditory learner; the tactile learner.
