Mounds View Public Schools Community Education

Teams of students will explore, build and program a motorized LEGO model and create a presentation while also learning critical thinking and teamwork skills. Teams will present what they have learned to judges at a celebratory exhibition. No previously experience is necessary for participants or parents/guardians. Teams are parent/guardian-led, so parents/guardians should expect to help teach at every meeting by following the structured curriculum. Co-coaches: Two parents will be designated as “co-coaches,” who will coordinate group emails and help keep the team on track. Meetings: Teams will have an hour meeting time at their desired school location between 5-8 p.m. LEGO League Explore is a great way to reinforce skills already used in the classroom while also strengthening parent/ guardian-child bonds. The season will culminate in an exhibit for all teams in April 27, 2024 Please note participants do not need to register at their home school.
