Team Members Wanted

Attention 4th & 5th graders and their families. We're forming a new First LEGO League team at Grout!

This team seeks 6 to 8 students who love to try things, have an ability to be persistent when faced with a challenge and look for the fun in everything. No robotics experience necessary. Skills students will practice are problem solving, research, engineering, programming, strategic planning, communicating about their projects, and teamwork.

What's involved:
Teams will build and program a LEGO EV3 robot to solve missions in a robot game.
Teams will create an innovative proposal to solve a real world problem about cities.
Teams will also learn and demonstrate Core Values of First Lego League:
   •Discovery: We explore new skills and ideas.
   •Innovation: We use creativity and persistence to solve problems.
   •Impact: We apply what we learn to improve our world.
   •Inclusion: We respect each other and embrace our differences.
   •Teamwork: We are stronger when we work together.
   •Fun: We enjoy and celebrate what we do!
