FIRST LEGO League Divisions

From Discover, to Explore, and then to Challenge, students will understand the basics of STEM and apply their skills in an exciting competition while building habits of learning, confidence, and teamwork skills along the way.

This playful introductory STEM program ignites young students' natural curiosity and builds their habits of learning with hands-on activities in the classroom and at home using LEGO ® DUPLO ® bricks.

In Explore, teams of students ages 6-10 focus on the fundamentals of engineering as they explore real-world problems, learn to design, and code, and create unique solutions made with LEGO bricks and powered by LEGO ® Education WeDo 2.0.

Friendly competition is at the heart of Challenge, as teams of students ages 9-16* engage in research, problem-solving, coding, and engineering - building and programming a LEGO robot that navigates the missions of a robot game.

Our Core Values

The FIRST Core Values are the cornerstones of the program. They are among the fundamental elements that distinguish FIRST LEGO League from other programs of its kind.

By embracing the Core Values, participants learn that friendly competition and mutual gain are not separate goals, and that helping one another is the foundation of teamwork.

We express the FIRST philosophies of Gracious Professionalism ® and Coopertition ® through our Core Values.

Discovery

We explore new skills & 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.

We enjoy and celebrate what we do!

Our Founders

In 1998, FIRST Founder Dean Kamen and the owner of LEGO Group Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen joined forces to create FIRST LEGO League, a powerful program that engages children in playful and meaningful learning while helping them discover the fun in science and technology through the FIRST LEGO League experience.

Dean and Kjeld have a shared belief that FIRST LEGO League inspires teams to research, build, and experiment, and by doing so, they live the entire process of creating ideas, solving problems, and overcoming obstacles, while gaining confidence in their abilities to positively use technology.

Global Innovation

The 2022 FIRST LEGO League Global Innovation Award presented by Qualcomm showcases the real-world, innovative solutions created by FIRST LEGO League Challenge teams from around the world. Demonstrating originality, creativity, potential impact and value, 20 finalist teams are recognized for their inventions, and receive assistance to further develop solutions.

Every year, FIRST ® LEGO ® League releases a new Challenge based on a real-world, scientific theme.

Starting with Discover, children are introduced to the fundamentals of STEM while working together to solve fun challenges and building models using LEGO ® DUPLO ® bricks.

As participants progress into Explore, children will take their background knowledge of STEM and put it into practice as they work in teams to design and build robots using the LEGO ® Education SPIKE Essential.

Once they are ready to move into a competitive setting, they join Challenge and apply their STEM skills combined with critical thinking to work with a team, build a robot, and compete in an exciting, mission-based robotics game.


We know that when we move, play, and compete in any sport, we use our minds — our creativity, imagination, and critical thinking — as much as we use our muscles. It’s time to redefine the game and revolutionize the way we play and move. FIRST is teaming up with Disney and Lucasfilm for our 2020-2021 robotics season theme: FIRST ® GAME CHANGERS SM powered by Star Wars: Force for Change.

This season, our programs will represent the evolution of our sports and activities that make us physically and mentally strong. For centuries, sports have played an integral part of our culture. The FIRST community is building a culture that recognizes the athlete in each of us— whether our talents lie on the court, in the lab, or with a controller in hand. It’s time to be GAME CHANGERS.

Family Engagement

Families who participate together in FIRST LEGO League discover the power of curiosity, creativity, and problem solving, building the foundation for life-long confidence in STEM learning.

Соревновательное направление знакомит детей в возрасте 4-6 лет с миром науки, инженерии и STEAM в игровой форме и развивает природное любопытство и привычку учиться.

После освоения программы дети станут более уверенными в себе, будут лучше подготовлены к задачам, которые перед ними ставит современный мир, и поймут, что учиться - это здорово!

Для решения задач, тесно связанных с реальным миром, дети используют наборы «Планета STEAM» и специально разработанный набор LEGO DUPLO®.















СРОК РЕГИСТРАЦИИ КОМАНД ДО 1.12.2021

Дети учатся работать в команде, помогать друг другу и распределять задачи. Вместе они узнают о том, как строить различные проекты, а также знакомятся с некоторыми вопросами проектирования.

В ходе программы дети будут мыслить и действовать, как архитекторы и инженеры: развивать наблюдательность, критичность мышления, умение собирать информацию и задавать дополнительные вопросы.

EНа каждом занятии они будут на собственном опыте осваивать процесс проектирования. Такое обучение не предусматривает строгого порядка: дети могут повторять каждый этап по несколько раз в течение одного занятия. Это значит, что в ходе урока они изучают тему и идеи, придумывают решения, проверяют их, воспроизводят и изменяют, а затем делятся с другими тем, чему они научились.


Каждая команда получит один набор "Грузовые перевозки", состоящий из полосы препятствий LEGO® DUPLO®, фигурок LEGO DUPLO, наборов Six Bricks, игрового поля и трех карт строительства, а также методических материалов для педагога и участников.
Наборы предназначены для того, чтобы помочь детям включиться в тему и должны послужить отправной точкой обсуждения и дальнейшего конструирования.
Игровое поле используется в качестве пространства для совместной работы, объединяющего все их модели.
Каждому ребенку понадобится один из шести цветных кирпичиков. Набор Six Bricks является одним из инструментов для организации обучения через игру.
Выполняя веселые и короткие задания, дети могут отрабатывать различные навыки, такие как владение языковыми средствами и общение, решение проблем и сотрудничество


В рамках программы дети работают в командах от двух до четырех человек с элементами набора LEGO Education «Парк» и комплекта "Грузовые перевозки", предназначенного для изучения естественно-научных, технических, точных дисциплин и творчества (STEAM).
Посредством сотрудничества и общения дети совместно конструируют, учатся, играют. На каждом занятии детям помогают научиться работать в команде, слушать друг друга, действовать по очереди, обмениваться идеями и предметами.


Участники под руководством тренера на протяжении нескольких занятий конструируют свой проект, основные моменты каждый участник записывает в специально разработанную инженерную тетрадь (схемы, чертежи, рисунки, идеи), проводят совещания и мини-презентации экспертам в области своего проекта, создают совместно с тренером и родителями стиль команды и SHOW ME постер для защиты проекта.


Когда вы разработали проект, нужно заполнить все свои инженерные тетради, подготовить защиту своего проекта (рассказать об основных моментах), разработать свой SHOW ME постер придти на соревнования (муниципальный, городской, региональный и федеральный уровни). Защитить свой проект. Выполнить специальное задание от экспертов и получить удовольствие от свое работы!

FIRST LEGO League’s three divisions inspire youth to experiment and grow their critical thinking, coding, and design skills through hands-on STEM learning centered around a yearly theme.

2022-2023 SUPERPOWERED SM Season

Costs for starting a FIRST LEGO League team vary depending on the division and level of participation. There are never any “per student” fees; all costs for individual team members are assumed by the team as a group.

FIRST believes all kids need equitable access to opportunity, relevant mentorship, and engagement to build a foundation for a bright future. We are available to assist teams in securing funding when extra help is needed. Registered teams also receive complimentary access to FIRST fundraising tools and resources to help teams create their own opportunities. Grants and sponsorships for teams may also be available provided locally, regionally, and nationally by many corporations.

We’re adding new opportunities for teams to get in the game this season and have a quality, flexible program experience, including teams who are in a fully remote environment.
