HOW TO REACT – Bricks That Speak

15.00

A hands-on, emotionally rich activity where children build words using LEGO bricks and observe one another — not just as students, but as human beings.

Guided by creativity, connection, and empathy, the material includes:
✔️ A step-by-step structure for the teacher
✔️ Observation-based activities using LEGO bricks
✔️ Cooperation between younger and older students
✔️ SEL questions that give words emotional meaning
✔️ Printable activity sheets
✔️ An alternative approach to vocabulary learning through construction

✨ A child doesn’t just learn a word — they discover who they are when building it.
✨ A child doesn’t just observe another — they gain the language to describe them with kindness.

This is a tool filled with meaning, LEGO bricks, and emotional depth. It can be used again and again, across different levels and age groups.
