Learning Station - Lego Letter Match

The kiddos matches upper case and lower case letters.  A bit tricky, but they worked together to do!

I originally found this idea on this blog:  Here!

Learning Station - Lego Case Match

This was tricky for the kiddos.  It really worked their brains and took some time.  But they each got it!  We'll definitely be repeating this station.

On the upper case letter Lego, I put a hint on the side:  the lower case letter.  So they knew what to look for.  I purposely didn’t match the colors.

Learning Station - Lego Color Match - Toddlers

 The kiddos helped me sort the Legos in their color baskets.  All the kiddos gathered around.  Some would take the Legos from me and put them in the correct basket.  Some kiddos would just point where the Lego should go and others just told me the color.  So it all worked out great working in a group.  Ha!

Learning Station - Lego Ii

The kiddos made quick work of this station!

 

Learning Station - Lego L -

The kiddos built a letter L today.

Learning Station - Lego Words

The kiddos are getting to be pros at the _at family.  Today they created these words with Legos, then wrote the beginning letter. 

 

 A couple of the kiddos wrote the whole word!  Yahoo!  Even better!

Learning Station - Pattern Making with Duplos

For today's learning station we were working with pattern making.  I put together 3 different patterns using Duplo blocks.  The idea was that the kiddos would mimic my patterns by creating their own matching tower.   But instead they each (separately) added onto my pattern.  Ha.  That was totally fine, it was still pattern practice.

Legos!

There is so much fun and learning to be had with Legos, I just love them!

Today we created a nice long train filled with passengers.  There is great problem solving and hand eye coordination in this play.  You can also work with colors and shapes, not to mention good 'ole fashioned imaginary play!
