Class Description
Brothers Who Brick provides virtual and in-person LEGO Classes. Our class encourages creativity in our students. We provide a fun and safe learning environment where LEGO is our main learning material. Students are urged to use the LEGO they have available for class. Our program is catered to help the student learn the project for class using LEGO pieces. Our class covers a wide range of subjects including history, storytelling, engineering, and other topics. S.T.E.M is our primary foundational tool for each class.
PRIVATE CLASS In-PERSON CLASS VIRTUAL CLASS
How we use S.T.E.M
Science - Our class is used in experimental projects. Using LEGO, each student can experiment while building; to learn how everyday machinery works.
For example: Two gears put together creates “meshing” which generates kinetic energy for movement
Technology - Our class uses LEGO elements including LEGO Technic. Using LEGO Technic, we can learn how technology works to create movement.
For example: Learning how a “Hinge” works on a LEGO build by drawing comparison to doors
Engineering - Our class introduce the concept of innovation. Students can learn how different techniques work by designing new LEGO builds
For Example: Building a functioning slide, there are many ways to build a functioning slide
Mathematics - Our class teaches students how to count LEGO Bricks and LEGO Studs. Learning how to count LEGO will enable students to understand how many bricks is needed to build a structure.
For Example: The empire state building needs 40 (2x4 Bricks) & 20 (2x2 Bricks). How many bricks are needed to build the empire state building. (60 Bricks)
Class
Brothers Who Brick Virtual Classes provide a 5-Week program of a various theme and topics. Each class has an optional homework assignment based on what is covered in class. Each student is encouraged to use their creative and listening skills to understand the purpose of the topic.
Brothers Who Brick Private Classes offers a 5-Week 1 to 1 program with an option to extend classes beyond the 5-Week parameters. Themes of the class are optional based on the student’s education needs.
