LEGO® Discuss starter

“I like the idea of using LEGO® in my session, but don’t want to go full in yet.  Do you have a quick activity I could try out?”

This is a question I get asked a lot, so I thought I'd share a possible discussion starter as an example of how you can use LEGO® in a session, without making it the main focus.

  • Introduce the LEGO®. (Some people might need a bit of theory here to accept play as a form of learning – see previous post on why I use LEGO® in my sessions.)
  • Let them know you are going to ask them to build something from the LEGO® to help get a discussion started.
  • Explain that the bricks can mean whatever they want them to mean.

Perception discussion starter
  • Ask your learners to select three LEGO® pieces that represent their personality at work. (Xtra bags and LEGO® Accessory work really well for this activity)
  • Ask them to explain why they chose those pieces.
  • Ask them to pick one further piece that they think others may have picked for them
  • Again, ask them to explain why they chose that piece.
  • Continue the discuss linking to your session outcomes
 
This short activity is good because there are no perceived right or wrong answers.  It also allows everyone to have time to think about the topic before you launch into any theory or deeper discussion.
