Let's Go With LEGO
“Blocks that build you”
The introduction of fun learning in the education system has given rise to different ways of activities, which are not only filled with excitement but learning as well. The aim of Omotec has always been to impart knowledge to students in ways which will set them apart from others. They have everything i.e. from the simple LEGO to complex programming and robotics. Most people think that LEGO is just simple block building and used for channeling fun through the kids, but it's much more than that.

Omotec has incorporated LEGO in their learning mechanism, as it forms one of the great elements of STEM learning and helps the students in their overall growth. LEGO can be built either individually or in groups. When the kids play together and try to complete their LEGO models, it helps in enhancing and boosting their soft skills i.e. interpersonal communication, teamwork, mutual understanding etc. There are different models of LEGO and the child needs to play different roles every day while arranging them, for which they are given different sets of rules, which they must follow, that helps them in understanding the essence of responsibility. Arranging the blocks accurately is not as easy as it seems, and the children need a constant support system, for which expert facilitators are appointed who can cater to the dilemma of students. LEGO sets come with a proper set of instructions that the kids follow to complete their model, which helps in increasing their spatial awareness and problem-solving skills. Assembling LEGO requires a great amount of focus and concentration, as the blocks can come crashing down if one wrong move is made. The immense focus of the kids while playing with LEGO, aids the growth of their attention and concentration span, which will be helpful to them in whatever field they go to, as every job requires patience.
It serves as a great exercise for the small kids and when the children get the hang of it, their motor skills increase, and it becomes easier for them to put the blocks in the right place. The completion of their model gives the kids a sense of achievement, and they can't help but showcase the masterpiece they created with their delicate small hands. Appreciating their hard work is important as it gives them the confidence to pursue their interests further. Due to the widespread COVID virus, kids are cooped up in their houses, and their growth has stagnated. With the future in mind, Omotec has constituted a space for the kids, where they can grow freely and seamlessly, and soar high in the sky with a confident smile.
