What is 4-H FIRST LEGO League?
Teams of up to 10 kids and guided by at least one adult coach, team members have about 10 weeks to work on the Annual Challenge
Each annual Challenge has two parts, the Project and the Robot Game
The 3 Rs of FIRST LEGO League
Robots– learning to program the robots, build add-ons to accomplish the tasks set forth in the challenge on the Challenge Field in the 2.5 minute opportunity to showcase their robot and programming
Research- Learning about the challenge and how our community can make a difference and presenting it in a creative way
Report– Defend the robot, your programming, your teamwork and your research project
FIRST LEGO League Core Values
We are a team We do the work to find solutions with guidance from

•Research a community connection to the year’s theme•Brainstorm a way your community could impact that theme•Plan a project to impact that theme•Plan a creative way to share•Share it with the community•5 Minutes including Setup
Regional CompetitionRobotics Challenge
•2 ½ minutes to complete as many missions as possible•Only 2 members at the board at one time…can tag and change•Use only one robot•Must practice changing apparatuses so that doesn’t slow you up•Don’t shy away from Regional if you only have a few missions completed
2014 Challenge Engineering and How we Learn What is the future of
learning? FIRST® LEGO® League teams will find the answers. In the 2014 FLL WORLD CLASS ℠Challenge, over 230,000 children ages 9 to 16* from over 70 countries will redesign how we gather knowledge and skills in the 21st century. Teams will teach adults about the ways that kids need and want to learn. Get ready for a whole new class – FLL WORLD CLASSSM!
FLL challenges kids to think like scientists and engineers.
How do teams get Started?
1. Starting to build the LEGO pieces that make up each of the missisons– You will download the instructions for building the
Mission Model Pieces– Check out the Mission pieces, pictures and video of the
how the constructed LEGO piece fits into the World Class Challenge on Youtube when the challenge is released on August 26 …see what your Robot has to do to accomplish each mission
– Lay out the mat and start building the pieces that go on it
