About
FIRST LEGO League introduces science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) to children ages 4-16 through fun, exciting hands-on learning. FIRST LEGO League participants gain real-world problem-solving experiences through a guided, global robotics program, helping today’s students and teachers build a better future together. Team 1781 started two FLL teams at Lindblom (42743 & 36123) to provide Lindblom’s Academic Center program with an opportunity to begin working in FIRST.
In FIRST LEGO League, students engage in hands-on STEM experiences, building confidence, growing their knowledge, and developing learning habits. FIRST LEGO League’s three divisions inspire youth to experiment and enhance their critical thinking, coding, and design skills through hands-on STEM learning and robotics.
FIRST LEGO League Challenge – Grades 7-8
Friendly competition is at the heart of Challenge, as teams of students ages 9-16* engage in research, problem-solving, coding, and engineering – building and programming a Lego robot that navigates the missions of a robot game. As part of the Challenge, teams also participate in a research project to identify and solve a relevant real-world problem.
