Jr First Lego League

It looks like we will be starting a Jr FLL club, at my house, this next month. Currently there are 3, 1st grade boys on the team. We won't be doing any robot programing this year, but maybe by the time they are 3rd graders we will incorporate it into our design. Unlike a FLL team for 4th-8th grades, JrFLL is non competitive and we do not have to have a robot.

This year's theme is Body Forward. We will be learning about biomedical engineering. Yes, 1st graders are going to learn what the term biomedical engineering means. They will be designing a tool, out of Legos, that is the result of biomedical engineering. I am looking forward to sharing their achievements with you.
