School Assignment: Energy Efficient Home

 

I recently did an assignment for school to come up with my own design for an energy efficient house, based on my class unit on forms of energy.

I made it into a stop motion video. I hope you enjoy it and learn a bit too!

Virtual BrickAwesome Convention entries

2020 has been a very different year.  We were looking forward to gathering with many brick enthusiasts to enjoy our common interest in all things Lego, however, with the restrictions imposed due to COVID-19, things needed to be done differently.  No big gatherings meant that online meetings were going to have to do for now.

This post shows what we shared with our friends at BrickAwesome on May 9th on exhibition at the 2020 event.

E1: I built a large village, and here is a video that takes you on a tour of all my new creations!

You will see a drive-in movie theatre with lots of custom cars, watching my Lego Iron Giant tribute stop-motion mini movie,
 a sky train, town square, restaurant, church, a hang gliding figure, a working crane, a pizza shop, a school, and see if you can spot the dinosaurs! Tell me how many you counted...
Then you will see my Time Machine ship, then my Iron Giant posable figure.

Next, here are some photos of E2's village and other creations.

E2's village
E2: In my village you will see a crane that works by pulling chains and levers, a camper, a tow truck, and a pizza parlour!

This is Brick Pizza, my pizza parlour!

E2's Super-Awesome Jet



The online event went really well.  We saw some neat creations at http://www.brickawesome.ca from the virtual entries tab.  We learned that there are so many creative people who build with Lego!
During the event, we all explained our entries and voted for our favourite submissions in different categories.
Our submissions got voted on too.

E2's Super Awesome Jet won for best spaceship!

 And E1's Drive-In Movie Theatre with stop-motion movie won for one of the Creative builds!

We are so glad to have a great community with other brick enthusiasts who continue to encourage and inspire us to keep on building!
