Discover the Magic of LEGO® Education's LEGO® Learning System
One cannot speak of hands-on STEM education without mentioning the iconic LEGO® Education. Their latest offering, the LEGO® Learning System, is a game-changer. It introduces students to two transformative learning streams. Firstly, we have SPIKE™, a dynamic platform focused on robotics and coding that brings machines to life right before your eyes. Secondly, the BricQ Motion stream delves into the intricate world of physical science and engineering, teaching students the fundamentals of movement, force, and mechanics. Recognizing the diverse learning needs at different age levels, each stream thoughtfully offers two grade-specific kits: The Prime kits, designed for Grade 6 and above, and the Essential kits that cater to the foundational lessons for K-5. With the LEGO® Learning System, educators can seamlessly integrate comprehensive STEM lessons, ensuring students of all ages have the building blocks for a bright future.

And don't forget our Best Supporting Actors — tools that make the teaching process smoother. From BLED USB adaptors, the uber-convenient USB charging hub, to the economical 1m USB-micro USB cable and organizational marvels like the STEM Storage carts and the UV Tech Tub (to sanitize your tech!).
Before educators even think of how to integrate these tools, the next vital question is often:
"How do I teach this?"
For those venturing into coding, platforms like code.org offer drag-and-drop coding experiences, ideal for beginners. Meanwhile, advanced learners and educators can delve into text-based coding with resources like codeHS.com.
Be Classroom Ready
To further simplify the educator's journey, tools like the Kitronik Lesson-in-a-box sets come equipped with individual kits, posters, and all lessons conveniently stored on a USB stick. The newly launched Science Digital Resource 2023 recommends the best products for each grade (from Gr. 1-8), ensuring alignment with every strand in the curriculum. Furthermore, the Arduino Education sets not only provide hands-on tools but also boast of digital lesson plans filled with cross-disciplinary activities that align with the new Science Curriculum.
