FIRST® LEGO® League Jr
Grades 1-3
It's never too early to discover STEM. FIRST LEGO League Jr. is designed to introduce STEM concepts to kids ages 6-10 while exciting them through a brand they know and love: LEGO. Guided by adult coaches and FIRST Core Values, students build models using LEGO Education WeDo 2.0 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.
