This Edina Trust Nursery Bundle offers EYFS settings a fun and creative introduction to early coding using LEGO Education’s Coding Express. Pre-school children will love learning through play about sequencing, looping, conditional coding, and cause and effect using colourful action bricks and the familiarity of a train – all aboard! For teachers, there are easy-to-use ‘Getting Started’ activities, 6 double-sided inspiration cards and 8 online lessons along with video tutorials.

This Nursery Bundle also includes 2 sets of LEGO Education’s STEAM Park which EYFS pupils will also love! Working together, children will explore and investigate the world of STEAM through creative play as they build their own STEAM Park using LEGO® DUPLO® bricks! With every trip to STEAM Park, children grow their understanding of gears, motion, measurement, and solving problems together in a fun and engaging way. This bundle will naturally spark children’s curiosity and creativity through hands-on playful learning and the online training session will help you get familiar with Coding Express and STEAM Park.

LEGO Education STEAM Park × 2

STEAM Park builds on every child’s natural curiosity and desire to create, explore, and investigate the world of early science, technology, engineering, art, and maths (STEAM) through creative play. With every trip to STEAM Park, children grow their understanding of gears, motion, measurement, and solving problems together in a fun and engaging way.

  • Cause and effect
  • Observing and describing
  • Problem-solving
  • Role play and collaboration

The Importance of STEAM in Early Learning

Children naturally use their curiosity and instincts to explore, experiment, observe, and play. They are constantly exploring the world around them, testing and experimenting and thinking like small scientists - what happens with the LEGO bricks, the paper or the leaves, will they float or sink? What happens if I roll the car down the ramp? What if I use a ball instead? How can I make a chain reaction? These types of skills lay the foundation for the development of children's Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM) skills.

STEAM Park is designed to spark children's natural curiosity and interest within the learning areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM).

The concepts of STEAM is introduced through hands-on learning experiences with LEGO® DUPLO® bricks. Using an amusement park as the theme, this set will instantly engage your preschool class in a familiar way. Contact us if you require more information.

Coding Express

Make your train pause, stop, change direction, sound the horn, and more! Taking the familiarity of a train and combining it with the new action bricks, early learners will learn through play about sequencing, looping, conditional coding, and cause and effect by placing the new action bricks within the train’s track. Each action brick creates a specific action allowing for students to test and redesign ways to problem-solve and work together to get their train to its destination.

The Coding Express App (available for for iOS and Android) is a free child-led app featuring 4 fun and educational activity areas, including:

  • Journeys: Explore destinations and traffic signs. Learn about the sequencing of events, making predictions, planning and problem solving.
  • Characters: Support children’s social and emotional development. Children identify and examine the feelings of -characters, considering the consequences for others.
  • Maths: Explore and understand how to measure, estimate distance and identify numbers.
  • Music: Learn about sequencing and looping. Compose simple melodies, explore different animal and instruments sounds

Curriculum
Coding Express includes a Teacher Guide build which contains 8 online lessons: 4 lessons use the physical set and 4 lessons use the digital app. The Coding Express Teacher Guide also includes 8 short online video tutorials to help you make the most of the solution.

The lessons have been developed using science, maths and technology guidelines from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the 21st Century Early Learning framework (P21) and Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework.
