FIRST Lego League has 3 programs: Discover, Explore, and Challenge. Resources for all three divisions can be found [here](https://www.firstlegoleague.org/season).

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="FLL Discover" %}
FLL Discover is for ages 4-6 (Grades PreK - 1) and is a guided education opportunity for children to learn basic STEM skills with hands-on activities in the classroom utilizing LEGO DUPLO bricks. Students meet roughly 10 times to learn about STEM through DUPLO building and finish their season with a celebration event showcasing their learning.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="FLL Explore" %}
FLL Explore is for kids ages 6-10 (Grades 2-4) and teaches students the basics of Engineering by having students study real world science concepts, and build a model using LEGO Bricks and program the model using LEGO Education Tools. Teams showcase the following work and share what they have learned with others:

* Model: Teams create a LEGO model with a moving/electronic component
* Project: Teams research a topic and create a poster board about their findings
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="FLL Challenge" %}
FLL Challenge is for kids ages 9-16 (Grades 4-8) and has several parts. This division challenges students to do research, problem solving, engineering, and coding. There are 3 main parts to the division:
