“FIRST® LEGO® League Explore brings science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) to kids, grades 2-4 through fun, exciting hands-on learning. FIRST LEGO League Explore participants gain real-world problem-solving experiences through a guided, global robotics programme, helping today’s students and teachers build a better future together.”
- Kaitlin Ilnitzki, Assistant Director, VA+DC FIRST LEGO League
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 SPIKE™ Essential or LEGO Education WeDo 2.0.
Teachers and coaches are fully supported with comprehensive resources available to download on the FIRS...
“These programmes have been an amazing resource for both the children and families in our community. As a volunteer for 20 years, I’ve gotten to see countless students come through the programmes, learning and growing in ways that continue to amaze me. It’s so much more than just the robots. The creativity, problem solving and teamwork skills that these programmes foster will stay with these students throughout their lives and have already enabled them to impact their communities for the better. It’s been an honour to be a part of that process for all these years.”
- Karen Berger, Key Volunteer
