Something special is happening in my school district.
It's quite magical actually...
We are purchasing more and more Legos for our students as tools of learning.
Now, don't get me wrong, I know how this sounds...
Kids playing with Legos while at school may appear on the surface as counterproductive when it comes to improving standardized test scores. That may be true (there's not a lot of research out there), but I'm feeling optimistic and I'm going to go out on a limb and say that playing with Legos may just have a positive effect on student learning, student growth and development, AND standardized test scores...
I hope this article demonstrates how useful manipulatives can be in the classroom
