Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 2
Beginner Level
The students will be guided through a step by step video on how to create their Lego initial. This will be done in a strategic with guidance from the teacher. The learners will be able to interact with me and ask questions as we go along. They are welcome to share their ideas  or a different approach that they may want to use (e.g. perhaps they want to use a bigger canvas and do both their first and last initial). The learning goals for this class are for students to develop fine motor skills, creativity, spatial reasoning, and letter recognition through a hands-on, sensory-rich art activity by constructing letters using LEGO pieces on a painted canvas.

Learning Goals

Children will learn a variety of skills including, but not limited to painting skills, tracing, fine motor, and spatial reasoning.
