3D Architectural & Structural DesignSTEMBring your imagination to life. Become a master bricklayer and use our special architectural LEGO kits to build your creations. Be an architect as you learn the principles of construction. The main goal of this course is to introduce the concept of 3 dimensions and their role in design. Working in teams, students will construct buildings, structures, towers, castles, and more. Students will learn construction principles and use math skills as they experiment with scale and size, staggering vs. stacking bricks, and more. We'll build houses with removable roofs, castles with turrets, and towers of strength! It might be impossible to exhaust the creative potential of LEGO bricks. With an active imagination as your guide, there are endless possibilities. Students will be working in pairs.Youth Classes Summer 2022
