Hello all my maker friends,
Have no fear, the 25 Days of Making is still alive and breathing. I took a little break in posting to give myself and you time to enjoy the holiday with loved ones. Now that we are rested, let us get back into the making.
Today we pick up with Day 21 and what better way to get back to making than using some LEGO! The universal toy that can do so much for learning and play no matter our age, location, or occupation.
Check out the project for Day 21
Learn more about Naomi and her other projects for 25 Days of Making on our maker page.
Join our FB Group dedicated to this project to ask questions, share ideas, and connect with other makers. We have had a lot of new faces join the group so let’s get connecting!
Finally, I would love to hear from you. What projects excite you? What are you learning so far? Don’t be shy, let us know your thoughts, ideas, and inspiration.
P.S. If you like this build challenge, then look at this free online course I am running through April 2020.
I have always had a love for hands on learning and play. I have seen this learning continue to get stifled in schools with all the pressures mounting on schools, teachers, and students. As stress, fatigue, anxiety, and burnout continue to increase for both students and adults I see a bigger need to help support education with infusing more play and wonder into the classroom.
I have done something about it. After leading several PD sessions and workshops using LEGO and other materials to bring excitement to learning I realize I can do more.
Back in April 2019 I launched the first version of Purposeful Play with LEGO course. It was a six week blitz of play and building with a new topic each week. It was incredible. Check out the work here to see what we accomplished with educators from all over the globe.
I have brought it back, but with changes. A slower pace, new activities, new learning, and more opportunities to connect, learn, and share.
Be ready as the course will launch December 2019 and continue through May 2020. Each month we will focus on a new goal with lots of exciting challenges infused into the learning.
