The organizers decided that while adults would be busy with the dictation, their children would “write” a Bricks-dictation using Lego blocks instead of letters.

Bricks-dictation is an author project by Natalia Ivanischeva. It was designed with the purpose of raising literacy level among children. The exercise is to develop their memory, attention and spatial intelligence.

Bricks-dictation will be conducted in different age groups of children from five to eight years old. The size of each group is 24 people. Each session will last for fifteen minutes.

As per Russkiy Mir Foundation, Total Dictation event will be held on April 8 on almost three thousand grounds all over the world.
