EV3 Intro

We will be finishing our models and begin programming, as well as going over our core Values.

Core Values

The FLL Core Values are the cornerstones of the FLL program. They are among the fundamental elements that distinguish FLL from other programs of its kind. By embracing the Core Values, participants learn that friendly competition and mutual gain are not separate goals, and that helping one another is the foundation of teamwork.

• Discovery: We explore new skills and ideas.
• Innovation: We use creativity and persistence to solve problems.
• Impact:  We apply what we learn to improve our world.
• Inclusion: We respect each other and embrace our differences.
• Teamwork: We are stronger when we work together.

• We do the work to find solutions with guidance from our coaches and mentors.
• We know our coaches and mentors don’t have all the answers; we learn together.
• We honor the spirit of friendly competition.
• What we discover is more important than what we win.
• We share our experiences with others.
• We display Gracious Professionalism® and Coopertition® in everything we do.
• Fun: We enjoy and celebrate what we do!

We will also begin discussing our projects!

The new season is upon us and it is time to build the models for our game board.
Please download each bag from below on to your chrome-book so you always have it ready.
Go ahead and look it over and become familiar with the various models. It will be important not just for the initial build but also for when problems occur during competition or if it breaks. Working together and doing this as quickly as we can is a nice Core Values lesson.
