About this event

Come and see how Legos can bring children's picture books to life and help your child think outside the book...I mean box! 🙂

In honor of Remake Learning Days PA, Paxtonia Elementary School students will join other students across America and around the world in showing their love of STEAM activities as they relate to various children’s picture books that will be read aloud in class.  Students will have the opportunity to work collaboratively or individually to build objects out of Legos that correspond to the stories that were shared with them in class. All grade levels will be given the opportunity to tinker and play with the Legos to create objects that detect stinky smells, or create the tallest tower possible, or design intricate bridges, or create a scene from one of the stories. It’s time to Remake Learning!
