Students play and build with large-scale blocks to learn about the design process that architects use.

Grades 2–9

Students explore the Museum's new interactive exhibition, Play Work Build, as part of a fun and fast-paced introduction to how architects use the design process. Students observe, draw, and use their math knowledge to learn two skills crucial to being an architect: model making and building planning. This program meets content standards for language arts, visual arts, technological literacy, and math. This program does not come with an Educator Resource Packet.
