DescriptionThe Kidizens “Build-A-City" workshop continues into the second semester as a highly interactive and fun community-building session – filled with creativity and excitement – where the kids build an entire LEGO city. The Kidizens will expand the city built during the first semester while learning about new and fun civic and economic concepts in a social learning environment. In this workshop, students will work together to address pressing civic needs within their growing town. In an engaging social environment, they must use analytical thinking, cooperative skills, and effective communication to make decisions as a city council and provide for their residents while managing a limited city budget. The kids will role-play as city council members to maintain citizen happiness and gain further problem solving, public speaking, and real-life skills.
