I created a Lego Writing Club at our homeschool co-op.

Many students feel it is more meaningful to write when they are writing for more than just their parents or teacher. You may consider a blog for your student or a shared, private site with a group of friends on something like MeWe.

I taught a co-op class where the kids built Legos with a partner and then went home and wrote about the tale they created. Each young writer posted their story on MeWe where I also posted pictures of their Lego builds. My kids loved seeing the stories posted from each of their friends each week and also enjoyed others reading their stories. Encouraging comments were encouraged. Here is a link to learn more about how to do Lego Writing Club with your friends, family or co-op.
