Lego CCA: What is Lego Education? | 乐高CCA: 乐高教育究竟是什么？

CISK第858篇

In many people's opinion, learning Lego is just playing with toys, but it is just simple block piecing and object building.

在很多人眼中，学乐高＝玩玩具，不过就是简单的积木拼接与物体搭建。

But in fact, learning LEGO is learning LEGO Education Course, building blocks is only the process, not the purpose.

但学习乐高，实际上是在学习乐高教育课程，搭建积木只是过程，并不是目的。

Playing Lego ≠ Lego Education

玩乐高≠乐高教育

CISK's LEGO CCA is a scientific, step-by-step curriculum developed by LEGO Education based on the cognitive development of children at different ages, and is offered free of charge to students in Pre-Nursery through Grade 3.

CISK采用乐高教育课程，根据托班到三年级孩子的认知发展制定了一套科学且阶梯式上升的课程体系。

In terms of equipment, LEGO toys and LEGO educational aids are very different. LEGO toys are built according to drawings, and the materials are mainly basic bricks and some special shaped bricks. 

从器材来说，乐高玩具和乐高教具就有很大的不同，乐高玩具是根据图纸搭建，材料以基础砖和一些特殊造型砖为主。

Whereas LEGO education has its unique spare parts, such as screwdrivers, screws, tires, tracks, including propellers, various boom gears, and turbines, bushings, levers, robots.

而乐高教具有其独特的零配件，比如螺丝刀、螺丝钉、轮胎、履带、包括螺旋桨、各种吊臂齿轮，还有涡轮、轴套、杠杆、机器人；

The Lego CCA in Pre-Nursery and Nursery focus on recognizing some things or creatures in life, such as cars, airplanes, boats, etc.

托班和小班的乐高CCA课程主要是从生活中常见的事物出发，认识车、飞机、船的结构并搭建。

In the building process, children learn about themselves and the world, develop large muscle movements, fine movements and hand-eye coordination, language skills, spatial orientation perception, exercise small muscle development, and in the building process, enrich children's life cognition and construction experience.

在搭建过程中认识自己、认识世界，发展大肌肉动作、精细动作和培养儿童手眼协调能力、语言表达能力、空间方位感知觉、锻炼小肌肉发展，在搭建过程中，丰富孩子的生活认知和建构经验。

The children in JK will use the screwdriver tool for hand-eye coordination training. Through the children's imagination and creativity, they will analyze, discuss and make useful tools with their peers to complete the task; teaching them to cooperate with others and understand collaborative work.

中班的小朋友会使用到螺丝刀工具进行手眼协调能力训练，将平时观察到的事物，通过孩子的想象和创意，与同伴们一起分析、讨论并制作有用的工具去完成任务；教会他们与人合作，理解协同作业。

In SK, mechanical components such as gears and levers are added to build models of common tools and appliances to explore the scientific and mechanical principles in life. Children will learn about the role of levers, axles, pulleys, gears, etc., and understand that technology is everywhere in life, and they can also feel the fun of creation and invention.

大班则是加入齿轮和杠杆等机械元件，搭建生活中常见的工具及电器模型，探索生活中的科学及机械原理。让孩子在玩中了解了解杠杆、轮轴、滑轮、齿轮等的作用，理解生活中的科技无处不在，也能感受创造发明的乐趣。

After entering elementary school, the course progresses to advanced mechanical principles, adding basic electronic components such as motors, motion sensors and battery boxes, and using smaller blocks and parts; through building and creativity followed by preliminary programming to make LEGO pieces move.

进入小学后，进阶到高级机械原理课程，加入马达、运动传感器和电池盒等基础的电子元件，使用的积木块和零配件也变小了；通过搭建和创意之后配以初步程序的编写，让乐高作品动起来。

Creating the World

创造世界

CISK's LEGO CCA aims to stimulate students' natural learning potential, following an experiential approach to teach children how to learn, guide them in the direction of exploring new knowledge, and develop their ability to learn and create by themselves, rather than simply telling them a conclusion and building a piece as they see fit.

CISK的乐高CCA旨在激发学生天性好学的潜能，遵循体验式教学，传授给孩子学习的方法，指导学生探索新知识的方向，培养学生自我学习、自我创造的能力，而不仅是简单地告诉学生一个结论，照着搭建一个作品。

LEGO takes blocks as the core, but never frames the final form, as long as you collect different particle blocks, you can build anything you want with them, and everyone can create unique works through LEGO.

乐高以积木块为核心，但永远不框定最终的形态，只要收集不同的颗粒块，就可以用它们搭建任何想要的东西，每个人都能通过乐高创造出独一无二的作品。

Many LEGO fans regard LEGO as a lifelong hobby and take becoming a LCP (LEGO Certified Professionals) as their pursuit in life. 

很多乐高迷将乐高视作终身的爱好，将成为一名LCP（乐高专业认证大师）当作人生的追求，脱离了机械的说明书外，他们用自己的想象力创造了一个又一个登峰造极的艺术品：

Apart from the mechanical instructions, they use their imagination to create one supreme artwork after another: animals, buildings, fantasy creatures, and even cities, LEGO has become a key to create the world in their hands.

动物、建筑、幻想生物，甚至还有城市，乐高在他们手中俨然成为了一把创造世界的钥匙。

Both horizontally and vertically, the creativity embedded in LEGO offers a possibility for children.

无论是横向还是纵向，乐高中所蕴含的创造力都为孩子提供了一种可能性。

Horizontally, they can build their own creations, from a small leaf or a flower to a large plane， a city or their own world.

从横向来看，他们可以将乐高作为爱好，拼接自己的作品，小到一片叶子，一朵花，大到一架飞机，一座城市，创造自己的世界；

Vertically, delving into LEGO, combining programming and mechanics, and participating in international robotics competitions is also considered an interest-oriented option, and FLL, one of the world's top-level robotics events, happens to be organized by LEGO Education.

从纵向来看，深入研究乐高，将程序和机械结合起来，参与国际机器人大赛，也是一种兴趣导向的选择，世界顶尖级机器人赛事之一的FLL就是由乐高教育所举办。

CISK hopes to provide a space for children to show their imagination, creativity, cooperation, the joy of learning and the ability to acquire new knowledge, so as to develop their problem-solving skills and allow them to approach the world, explore the world, understand the world and eventually create the world step by step.

CISK希望通过乐高CCA为孩子们提供一个展现想象力、创造力、合作能力、学习乐趣与获取新知识能力的空间，从而培养孩子解决问题的能力，让孩子们循序渐进地接触世界、探索世界、了解世界，最终创造世界。
