FIRST LEGO League in Granite School District

November 2014Josh Whiting

Granite School District’s Ed. Tech. department sponsors 30 FIRST LEGO League teams. In the FIRST LEGO League program children learn about coding, programming, and problem solving to prepare their robot for the robot games and to solve a real life issue or challenge.  In the course of creating a solution to this real-world issue and designing a robot, they also learn and apply the social skills of teamwork, collaboration, respect, and persistence.  Educational Technology is proud of our devoted coaches and our super awesome FIRST LEGO League kids.  This video shows the team from Stansbury Elementary hard at work with their teacher/coach, Karen Tinsley.  We would also like to invite you to drop into our Robot Games and Regional Qualifying event, January 17th, at Granger High School. Come see all the fun (and learning!)
