Legocies Brick by Brick
Students build a physical representation of their personal legacy brick by brick using LEGO® Education StoryStarter kits. Students will photograph their Legocy sculptures and write a creative writing piece describing their personal legacy. Students will learn about various artists that use LEGO® bricks to bring their artistic ideas to life such as sculptor, Nathan Sawaya, Legographer, Andrew Whyte, and sculpture, Sean Kenney. This program can be adapted for grades 4-12 because of the shared Common Core objective: Write narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective technique, descriptive details, and clear event sequences. This program can be adapted to focus on the legacies of historical, contemporary, and cultural figures and events. This program can be tailored to meet specific grade level standards and school needs. Other possibilities for tailored programs include: bullying, leadership, character development, and Covey’s Seven Habits.

Early College EAST High School is a STEM Early College and students are exposed to the engineering design process. Students are required to take an engineering course their freshmen year. Students transferred their design process skills to bricking “Romeo and Juliet” as they recreated the play in its entirety, recounting key plot points in each act. Students finished the workshop by building the theme of the play in groups. They used the 4C’s throughout the workshop — collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking. They are indeed, Brick Scholars.
