Let’s listen to a story and build with legos a challenge that is related to the theme! Learners will listen to a story while they use their legos to complete a lego building challenge that relates to the book. Themes include: dinosaurs, community helpers, animals, nature. Our class will start with quick introductions and greetings, we will go over class rules (taking turns speaking, raising hands, mute policy), I will introduce the book being read, and then give a few different choices of build challenges relating to the theme. Each student can choose whichever challenge they want to build, during the build time, I will read the book. Afterwards I will ask questions and talk with the students about what they are building. At the end of class, students can share their creations with each other! Classes consist of the following: - Greetings: A conversational introduction where students will be encouraged to engage with the teacher and each - Teacher Shares: I will share the theme of the class, and introduce the book. - Brainstorming Time: Students will take turns sharing ideas of what they might build relating to the theme. I will ask students questions that encourage critical thinking, and I will encourage students to ask each other questions as well. -Storytime/Building Time: I will read the story while students build. -Sharing: students will share what they worked on during the build time. I will ask questions and talk with the students about what they are building. -Farewells: Students will say good bye to one another and to the teacher before logging off.
