About FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL®)In FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL®), children are immersed in real-world science and technology challenges. Teams design their own solution to a current scientific question or problem and build autonomous LEGO robots that perform a series of

missions. Through their participation, children develop valuable life skills and discover exciting career possibilities while learning that they can make a positive contribution to society.

About the LEGO® GroupThe LEGO Group is a privately held company based in Billund, Denmark. The company is still owned by the Kirk Kristiansen family who founded it in 1932.

The LEGO Group is engaged in the development of children's creativity through playing and learning. Based on the world-famous LEGO® brick, the company today provides toys, experiences and teaching materials for children in more than 130 countries.

About FIRST®

Accomplished inventor Dean Kamen founded FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) in 1989 to inspire an appreciation of science and technology in young people. Based in Manchester, N.H., FIRST designs accessible, innovative programs to build self-confidence, knowledge, and life skills while motivating young people to pursue opportunities in science, technology, and engineering. With support from over 200 of the Fortune 500 companies and more than $20 million in college scholarships, the not-for-profit organization hosts the FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC® ) for students in Grades 9-12; FIRST® Tech Challenge (FTC® ) for Grades 7-12; FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL® ) for Grades 4-8; and Junior FIRST®

LEGO® League (Jr.FLL®) for Grades K-3. Gracious Professionalism® is a way of doing things that encourages high-quality work, emphasizes the value of others, and respects individuals and the community. To learn more about FIRST, go to www.usfirst.org.

FLL WORLD CLASSSM Challenge Learning UnleashedWhat is the future of learning? FIRST LEGO League teams will find the answers. Teams will teach adults about the ways that kids need and want to learn. Get ready for a whole new class – FLL WORLD CLASS!


The ProjectFor the Project each team identified a topic that they are passionate about or always wanted to learn; created an innovative solution that improves the learning experience; and shared their solution with others.


The Robot GameIn the Robot Game, teams can earn points if the field shows the following at the end of a 2.5-minute match:

Mission Scoring PositionOpening Doors The door is open enough for the referee

to noticeCloud Access The correct “key” was inserted into the cloud and the

SD card is upCommunity Learning The knowledge and skill loop is no longer touching

the community modelRobotics Competition The robotics insert is installed and the loop is no

longer touching the robotic arm modelUsing the Right Senses The loop is no longer touching the

senses modelThinking Outside the Box The idea model no longer touches the box model –

more points are awarded if the bulb faces upRemote Communications/Learning

The referee has seen the robot pull the slider west

Search Engine The loop that matches the single color in the frame is no longer touching the model

Sports The ball is touching the mat in the netReverse Engineering The basket is in Base – more points if you have built

a model identical to the one the other team put in itAdapting to Changing Conditions

The model is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise from its setup position

Apprenticeship The people are both bound to a model you design/supply and is touching the white circle

Engagement The yellow section is moved south and the dial is obviously clockwise of its setup position

Project-Based Learning The scale holds loops, which are each worth pointsPenalties If a Robot, Sprawl or Junk penalty is earned, the

referee deducts points for each occurrence up to 8
