Do you like Lego? Do you like philosophy? Then you'll love Philosobrick! Amanda Rogers (who's husband Andrew was on previously) talks to us about how she uses lego to help engage children in big ideas. We particularly look at how this can be used as a strengths based approach rather than a deficit approach when it comes to neuro-diverse children.

It is also transferable cross curricular. It can be used as a starter, plenary, flip learning or homework! It's so adaptable.

We also look at the drawbacks to this approach if it is not done correctly! (Leave time for free play!)

The Perth that is mentioned is in Western Australia - just to contextualise the regional and remote comment.


This is Amanda's website.


Here is a link to the quadrant question that is mentined


Lego serious play is an open source methodology - here is the link


I'll add a PDF document with more information below!

How to support The RE Podcast

I want to continue to create the RE Podcast as a FREE resource for teachers. However, there are runnings costs. I have to pay a monthly fee to Buzzsprout to host the podcast, I have to pay a fee for the website and the email address, I have to pay a fee to riverside fm to let me record interviews, plus the recording equipment has been a huge investment and needs updating..

There are THREE ways to support;

1) A one off gift at my Buy Me A Coffee page

2) Become and Patreon and give monthly where you will get extra content for FREE.

3) If you can't support financially, please leave a review on apple podcasts
