Lego Robotics Challenges
Fridays
10:45-12:15
Ages: Middle School and Up
Get ready to build, code, and compete!
In this high-energy LEGO Robotics Challenge class, students will step into the world of engineering and innovation through the lens of past FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Challenge themes. Each week, students work in teams to design, build, and program LEGO robots to complete real FLL-style missions inspired by previous seasons.
2022 Superpowered
2023 Masterpiece
2024 Submerged
2025 Unearthed
Students will learn to:
Build advanced LEGO robot models using gears, sensors, and attachments
Code autonomous robot missions using block-based LEGO Education software
Apply design-thinking to test, revise, and improve robot performance
Collaborate as a team to solve themed engineering challenges
Explore real-world STEM concepts connected to the year’s selected FLL missions (energy, art & design, transportation, ocean ecosystems, etc.)
Our class mirrors the excitement of an FLL team—minus the pressure of competition! Students participate in weekly mini-challenges, mission runs, strategy sessions, and creative problem-solving tasks that build confidence and teamwork. They’ll experience everything from designing a mission-ready robot to interpreting challenge mats, creating attachments, improving accuracy, and tackling time-based runs.
Perfect for students who:
✔ Love building and experimenting
✔ Are curious about how machines work
✔ Enjoy hands-on STEM projects
✔ Want to develop teamwork, coding, and engineering skills
✔ Are considering joining a competitive FIRST LEGO League team in the future
Whether your child is brand-new to robotics or already a mini-engineer, this class gives them the fun, creativity, and teamwork of FLL—right here at Space Coast Academics!
