Course Description
In FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Explore, students focus on the fundamentals of LEGO engineering as they explore real-world problems, learn and design basic code, and create unique solutions made with LEGO bricks and powered by LEGO Education WeDo 2.0. Teams of up to 6 students, led by parent-volunteer coaches, will meet 1 day each week for up to 1 hour. During these team "practices", teams will work together to develop a solution and model related to the current season's theme. The Winter/Spring 2026 season theme is "Unearthed". The season culminates with an FLL Explore Expo where each team will present their unique solution, model and learning. The Winter/Spring 2026 expo is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, April 21 at 5:30pm. (Parents are invited to attend!)
During the Winter/Spring season we encourage girls to participate by offering a GIRLS ONLY team if we have enough girls interested. If your student is intersted in being part of a girls only team - please indicate that in your registration.
Logistics
Instructor
This program is dependent on parent-volunteers to operate. Rosters are limited to 6 students. That means we need to identify a Head Coach and ideally 2 Assistant Coaches for every six student team. A MINIMUM of 2 adults (Coach + Assistant Coach) are required to be on-site to safely supervise each practice. No LEGO or robotics experience is necessary. FLL and Community Education will provide all of the materials and support necessary to guide teams through each practice. With small rosters - all parents should consider how they can volunteer to support the team.
