  FIRST LEGO League Challenge   (Ages 9-14)Â
Tomorrow’s innovators practice imaginative thinking and teamwork. Guided by two or more adult Coaches\, FIRST LEGO League* teams (up to 10 members\, ages 9-14) research a real-world problem related to sports. They must design\, build\, program a robot using LEGO SPIKE PRIME®\, then compete on a table-top playing field.
\nIt all adds up to tons of fun while they learn to apply science\, technology\, engineering\, and math concepts (STEAM)\, plus a big dose of imagination\, to solve a problem. Along their journey\, they develop critical thinking and team-building skills\, basic STEM applications\, and even presentation skills\, as they must present their solutions with a dash of creativity to judges. They also practice the Program’s Core Values\, which emphasize discovery\, teamwork and good sportsmanship.
\nTeams will participate in a local competition in December\, if available\, and may advance to regional competitions from there.
\nIf you are interested in creating your own team and requesting an AAALC staff member mentor/coach the group\, please contact the office directly at 341-1400.
