FIRST LEGO League Explore is designed for elementary school children aged 6 to 9. Each year, students, as an entire class, dive into an exciting topic in science and technology. Along the way, they playfully explore the world of programming using a LEGO® Education robotics set and create a motorized LEGO model.
The spring season for First Lego League is the offseason, meaning we will not travel around Massachusetts to attend competitions, but if the student continues with FLL in the fall, they will have scrimmages and showcases! During the semester, students design and build LEGO models – often with simple moving parts – while learning basic STEM concepts and problem-solving skills. Throughout the process, they brainstorm ideas, document their progress in an engineering notebook, and prepare to share their project and model with others at an FLL Explore festival, which we will host at The Robo Hub this semester
