Bricks and Beyond

Kimberly Gustafson taught two Bricks and Beyond workshops in my upper elementary classroom in March 2012. Kimberly and I worked together to tie the unique learning opportunities that Lego robotics brings with my simple machines unit. The classes were amazing, and all of my students enjoyed working with her. Kimberly had lessons prepared, brought all of the necessary materials for the activities she planned, and worked well with the students. She had age-appropriate follow up materials that helped the students explore the scientific process. I would be delighted to have Kimberly Gustafson work with my students again.

My 9-year old son loved the Lego Robotics classes. It was rewarding for him to see his Lego creations come to life using the computer software. He can't wait to start the next session! Jenifer Ethan's Mom

Kimberly Gustafson is fantastic! Great class! My daughter loves it. Ryan Ferris Great class!

Jacob thoroughly enjoyed the session and even gave up his swimming team practice to attend this make up class! The energy and enthusiasm you created in your class is wonderful, the kids really enjoyed getting to use the program and work on creating items with their friends. Thanks again! Jacob's Mom

What I have learned: I have learned cooperation, Lego building, and computer programming. I have learned a lot and had a lot of fun. Thank you, Kimberly! Rory Age 9.5

I liked the Drumming Monkey because you really had to think and I like thinking. I learned that smaller gears spin more times than bigger gears. Noah Age 10

I like Robotics class because it was fun doing the Giant and now I know how to make a giant stand up with a crane. Logan Age 9
