Lego Day!

Happy Lego Day!

Today our class celebrated National Lego Day. We learned  how Legos were invented by watching a short animated film called:The Lego Story,  created our own Lego character, and of course built something from Legos. It was a great, creative filled afternoon. Tomorrow we'll add some writing to go with our creations but for now......

First, we watched the Lego Story to learn about the history of Legos. We learned that Legos come from Denmark and the person that invented them, started by making wooden toys. It took a long time and a lot of work before legos were invented. We also learned that there is a huge amusement park called LegoLand where you can see large models of buildings and other things made from legos. To watch thevideo, just click the link below. 

The Lego Story

Next, we designed our own Lego person. We had a lot of fun thinking about what type of lego person we wanted to make.

Finally, we used Legos to create something. It was exciting hearing the conversations taking place & how different each creation was.

Final Creations!
