FIRST LEGO League Challenge

FIRST LEGO League Challenge introduces younger students (Ages 9-14 yrs) to real-world engineering challenges by building LEGO-based robots to complete tasks on a thematic playing surface. FIRST LEGO League Challenge teams, guided by their imaginations and adult coaches, discover exciting career possibilities and, through the process, learn to make positive contributions to society.

Students Get To

  • 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
We are only in our second year of FLL and every year we discover new things about FIRST and what’s involved. We loved being able to contribute to the FIRST Canada Live! show. It was neat to see what you do on that show. We haven’t had the time to watch the show regularly, but I think we’ll make a point of tuning in from time to time. It was really neat!

Many (perhaps most) of the kids I have worked with as a FIRST LEGO League coach have had at least one exceptionality. These kids have thrived together on FIRST LEGO League teams when traditional learning environments have not been successful in meeting their intellectual needs.
