“We loved using this kit. We used it with a small group of students who have high learning needs. There was great problem-solving and lots of oral language used in assembling the kit. It was a great ignite for work on 'where does our food come from?'”

“The bricks farm was a big hit in our class. A number of children were unable to collect these at their homes so it meant they did not miss out. It was fabulous to get a full set, providing lots of great opportunities for children to create alongside their peers.”

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them The kids became the teacher so they were explaining how to make the Lego to me and also to eachother. They also were problem solving together which can sometimes be hard within my school so it was great.

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? They loved the actual Lego kits because it’s hands on. Also allowed them to learn the different types of machinery and how it is used on a farm.

What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? I can now use it as an exemplar to explain they can be resilient and do hard things, they can work together and they can even read! A lot say they cannot read but a lot can by the way they used the instructions.

“The kids loved working and learning with the bricks. It was not only a great way to teach them but also they got the opportunity to be the teachers, help each other build with Lego and even teach me since I don’t own any Lego myself. Very collaborative and lots of team building.”
