In my year 2 class, the 6 and year 7 olds enjoyed opening and making the farm lego bricks. More guidance in connection with the curriculum would have been helpful. We made a te reo link but some of the sentence structures were too hard.

Five year old children found them difficult. Some connecting pieces either went missing or were not there. Pieces too small and fiddly for younger chidlren.

School Kit is an amazing resource. I really appreciated the Lego construction kit. We used it for some of our older neuro diverse children who created the kits for our younger children in the school.

The student were really engaged and enjoyed the construction element. The integration of Te Reo was awesome. It was quite hard to follow however as I didn’t find the instructions overly clear.
