To fully understand and support your students’ needs during a LEGO^® Education BricQ Motion Essential lesson, we encourage you to explore and work hands-on from a student’s perspective.

In the Free Throw lesson, student pairs explore the motion of a basketball when scoring a three-point throw.. In this lesson, your students will:

• Observe and measure an object’s motion to recognize a pattern
• Record data and use it to make predictions
