Manhasset students in Munsey Park Elementary School’s Extended Extras Lego Club are having fun putting their creative minds to work. The club, which is sponsored by the Munsey Park SCA, allows students to build, create and make friends.
Students transform into architects, engineers and designers as they blend their curiosity to create new builds. During the last few weeks, club members worked on making cars to test for distance and compete in a crash test. Volunteers Brady Yuttal and Audrey Zhou gave the students some parameters and rallied the group during the testing phase. In addition, students earned awards for their designs.
Throughout these hands-on activities, imagination and creativity are boundless. Students build and rebuild, sharing tips in a collaborative environment that enhances their teamwork, communication and problem-solving skills.
