Once a team is put together, the team commits to a real-world scientific project that is recommended by FIRST LEAGUE. The team then works together to come up with their original STEM based concept to life using LEGO model building. Each team member is committing to 2016-2017 season and team size is limited to only 6 students. Team members submit their finished project to FIRST LEGO LEAGUE JR. online showcase for sharing and receiving feedback from FIRST LEGO LEAGUE JR. teams from around the world.
