Hi Alex,
This sounds like such a fun opportunity! Since we’re providing resources and ideas for teachers, we don’t know of students who are great with LEGOs. Best of luck on your search!

Hi! In the past, I had referred teachers in our school district to your site to download your free STEM Lego Challenge cards that were blue, red, green and orange. I cannot find this set on your site. Would you be able to send me a direct link so that the teachers can continue to download them? Love your site, by the way! Thank you for your help!
Sarah says:Hi Rhonda,
I’m so happy to hear you love the LEGO Challenge Cards! You can find them at the link below. The rainbow background is just an updated version of the cards with the solid-colored backgrounds. https://thestemlaboratory.com/lego-challenge-cards/ Warmly,
