Explore quick route - FIRST® LEGO® League Explore

Complete FIRST® LEGO® League Explore in 7 x 1 hour sessions.

Who is this for?

This quick route can be used by coaches (alongside the Session Layout on page 8 of your Team Meeting Guide) if you don't have the full 12 hours available for the programme.

How does it work?

It’s really simple! The full programme has 12 sessions labelled 1 – 12 in the Session Layout page of the Team Meeting Guide. If you're short on time we suggest keeping these key sessions, in this order:

  • Dive In! (Session 1)
  • Ocean Layers (Session 2)
  • Sunlight Zone (Session 3)
  • Twilight Zone (Session 4)
  • Abyssal Zone  (Session 5)
  • Exploration Station (Session 7)
  • Team model (Double Session 8-9)
  • Team Poster (Session 10-11)
  • Prepare for a celebration (Session 12)

These are the sessions we suggest you leave out if you need a quick route through:

  • Deep Sea Discovery (Session 6)
