Lego Challenges with the Martinsville YMCA

Students in the Martinsville YMCA MHC After 3 group completed the Lego Challenges program (see earlier post for details). The students had some excellent designs and creations while building their skyscrapers, bridges and cars. These are some photos of the kids in action along with a few of their written descriptions:

"Today we built a building out of Legos. Then we tried to blow them down. It was really fun, but I was out of breath. Then we drew what our building would be like. My building is a big glass building built from glass made by the Sunrise Glass Company."
