FIRST LEGO League Junior

Program Highlight

Students at Jesse Wharton Elementary in Greensboro had a blast this fall participating in the FIRST LEGO League Jr. MISSON MOON season. Groups of students worked together to learn about and explore living on the Earth's Moon. They built rocket ships and moon bases to demonstrate what they learned and how their groups would make a life on the moon.  

Check out the video below highlighting the student's work and the fun they had as they carried out their mission!

Expo Highlight 

FLL Jr. teams were "over the moon" earlier this month during the FLL Jr. MISSION MOON Expo at the Carolinas Aviation Museum. Students showcased their LEGO Moon bases and Show-Me posters. They also learned about aerodynamics through paper planes, making a button, working with LEDs and more.  We ended our time together with an award ceremony, high-fives, smiles, and a little surprise for each participant. Thank you to the Carolinas Aviation Museum and FRC 3506 YETI for all your help and support to make is a great event for all!
