Starting in 2017, FRC Team 272 partnered with 3 local grade schools, Mary Mother of the Redeemer (MMR), St. Jude and Mater Dei to offer FIRST Lego League Jr(FLL Jr) programs to students in 1st to 3rd grade. FLL Jr. is designed to introduce STEM concepts to kids ages 6 to 10 while exciting them through a brand they know and love − LEGO®. Guided by adult coaches and FIRST LEGO League Jr. Core Values, students build models using LEGO® Education WeDo and create Show Me posters to present what they learned. The program focuses on building interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through a real-world challenge – to be solved by research, critical thinking, and imagination. |
