Description:

Legos Make Math More Fun!

Put away those workbooks, let’s learn math with Legos! Each week you will be tasked with a Lego project to build – from mansions to skyscrapers, swimming pools to zoos. But there’s a catch! Each project will require you to use a particular math concept. Your pool model might require a perimeter of exactly 16 inches. Or your skyscraper budget may call for a mezzanine that totals exactly $250 as calculated in Lego bricks. Our Right Brain Curriculum teacher will have your back – they will review key concepts including area, perimeter, measurement, probability, geometry, decimals, and estimation. Create your Lego models and then get ready to solve word-problems upon completion. You will have so much fun constructing your Lego creations, you might just forget you’re learning!
