FIRST® LEGO® League Grades 4-6

Introduces younger students to real-world engineering challenges by building LEGO®-based robots to complete tasks on a thematic playing surface.

  • Design, build, test and program robots using LEGO MINDSTORMS® technology
  • Apply real-world math and science concepts
  • Research challenges facing today’s scientists
  • Learn critical thinking, team-building and presentation skills
  • Participate in tournaments and celebrations

 

Junior FIRST® LEGO® League Grades K-2

Focused on building an interest in science and engineering, Junior FIRST® LEGO® League is a hands-on program designed to capture young children's inherent curiosity and direct it toward discovering the possibilities of improving the world around them. Just like FIRST® LEGO® League, this program features a real-world challenge, to be solved by research, critical thinking and imagination. Guided by adult coaches and the Jr.FLL Core Values, students work with LEGO® elements and moving parts to build ideas and concepts and present them for review.
