Our school is starting a First Lego League Jr. (FLL Jr.) Program and we need help purchasing WeDo 2.0 kits from Lego and Inspire Kits from FIRST Robotics. We expect this to be the first year of many in which we participate in the FLL Jr. Program. Students will learn about Teamwork, Engineering, Robotics, Programing and Space. This year's project is "Mission Moon". The students will be divided into teams of 5-6 students each. They will learn how to build working models with the WeDo 2.0 kits, and how to program those models. They will learn about the Moon, and about the challenges of supporting people on the Moon. They will brainstorm solutions to these challenges, pick one of these solutions, and expand it into a presentation and poster board. Then they will use the WeDo 2.0 and INSPIRE kit to create a functioning model that demonstrates their solution. Finally, the students will present their projects at two "Expos": one inside our school, and a second at an Expo attended by teams from all over Manhattan. We expect this group of students to come up with some incredibly creative solutions. For most of them, this will be their first significant exposure to engineering and programming and they appear to be very excited about the opportunity.
