Lego Robotics - First Lego League

FIRST LEGO League (FLL) brings theory and practice together in a revolutionary program. FLL empowers kids to combine what they’ve learned in the classroom with the latest technologies to solve the yearly Challenge!

Working in an environment that encourages inquiry and hands-on experimentation, team members fulfill project responsibilities modeled after actual professions. The roles they assume grant them the thrill of discovery as they witness firsthand how abstract concepts become concrete solutions.

The kids on FLL teams, with the help of their adult coach and mentors:

• Research the real-world issue presented in the Challenge
• Design, build, and program an autonomous robot using LEGO MINDSTORMS technologies
• Research and solve a problem faced by real-world scientists and present their solutions
• Utilize the new FLL social site (www.firstlegoleague.org) to enhance their FLL experience
• Compete in friendly, sports-like tournaments with the knowledge that what is discovered is more important than what is won
• Proudly celebrate their teams’ accomplishments
