Lego Education has launched its first language arts product, the Lego Education StoryStarter. Students can use the Education StoryStarter to literally build their own stories, says Lego, using their LEGO bricks as props.

Stephan Turnipseed (President, Lego Education North America): Communication will become the most important currency of the future.

StoryStarter sets include Lego bricks specifically chosen to support writing activities, including building plates, and the Education StoryVisualizer software, that lets students record and visualize the stories they have created.
