LOOK! A LEGO® CARNIVAL!
Okay, a FUN activity for a change...( like none of the activities thus far haven't been oodles of fun ).
I have noticed many of my students are preoccupied with carnivals, parks and the circus. Often teams will get together and build the "ultimate theme park" ( I have seen the "Atlantis Theme Park" and the "Crazy Theme Park" two examples ) complete with jails and a "special park just for babies!"
To be honest, I allow for a great deal of the student's own involvement in the carnival! I usually require bathrooms, receptacles for trash and some sort of food service ( a hot dog stand for example )...otherwise they are on their own. When students burn out on building robots and such, suggesting we build the ultimate carnival is usually a great bandwagon! It makes for great teamwork and the results are always a lot of fun. Here are a few pictures of some carnival rides some intrepid students built!
Okay weblanders...let's see some cool Lego® carnivals out there!
