Lego Lit Final

This document provides 4 tips for using LEGO builds to support a child's literacy development: 1. Create a LEGO museum with the child's builds and have them help arrange and organize the displays. 2. Take turns labeling each build to model writing and praise their attempts without correction. 3. Create a guide that highlights one build with a drawing and story imagined by the child, and encourage them to present and share their story. 4. Invite others to tour the museum and have the child read their guide and labels, treating reading as more than just letters and incorporating comprehension.
