EXPLORE OUR WORKSHOPS
Discover the learning philosophy of LEGO® Education in the thrilling atmosphere of LEGO® Discovery Center, offering an engaging introductory hands-on STEAM solution that encourages students to discover physical science in action.
PUSH CAR DERBY
Students will build a car with a removable brake and use a spring launcher to explore push and pull forces, and the effects of friction. Then explore and explain how force and friction can change the speed of an object and affect how far it will go in a push car race.
FREE THROW
Students will explore the motion of a basketball when scoring a three-point throw and will observe and measure the basketball's motion to recognize a pattern, record data and make predictions. Will they be able to score a perfect basket every time?

K - 2ND GRADE WORKSHOPS
PUSH CAR DERBY
These workshops will give your students an understanding of forces and motion as they plan and conduct investigations about the cause and effect of push and pull forces. Each workshop will introduce students to the process of asking and answering questions, data analysis, and how to present their ideas. They'll work toward determining whether design solutions work as they were intended to change the speed or direction of an object with a push or a pull.
3RD - 5TH GRADE WORKSHOP
FREE THROW
These workshops will develop your students' understanding of forces and motion as they engage in and conduct investigations about the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces. They'll investigate the patterns in an object's motion, developing and sharpening their ability to predict future motion. Along the way, they'll develop their collaborative conversation skills as they effectively engage in a range of discussions.
