Free weekly resource
Build the Change Tuesday is our free, weekly sustainability resource for 8 - 13 year-olds, designed for busy teachers looking for a quick, preparation-free activity. This sustainability resource created in partnership with the LEGO Group and The Day allows students to think critically about, discuss and debate a new sustainability issue every single week. It’s ideal for settling students into the day, and developing reading, comprehension and discussion skills.
Have your designs featured online
The Build the Change sustainability resource also challenges students to use their imagination and hands-on skills to ‘Build the Change’ for the future using LEGO® bricks or accessible craft materials. Complete the Build the Change challenge each week using LEGO bricks or bits of recycling, then take a photo of it and get a grown up to upload the photo to our online LEGO gallery for all to see! Be inspired by other builders by viewing the photo gallery here.
