We have 18 5th-8th grade PJHS students who said they were interested in joining out first ever First Lego League (FLL). When a team can only have 10 students, what else is there to do but add another team! Our first practice of 2 1/2 hours just flew by! Even the kiddos could not believe when I told them there were only 10 minutes left. We began practice with going over what they could expect for the season with core values, the robot project, and the robot game. Then, we watched a description of each mission, went to the game board to actually see what it would like, and discuses first thoughts about how we can do this. After a quick break we broke up into 4 teams to work on a Survival Core Values activity. We ended practice working with a partner to build a basic robot. We all had a BLAST! p.s. I even gave homework :) But, I don't think they will mind the tasks they have to research-they were all hooked.
