Tips For FLL Teams

[joeweber]

I would like to see a long list of help on this forum for team mentors and the students to come to and learn. I also think that their should be a push for a Lego team in every junior high school like there is for FRC in high school. Some of the Lego teams are well supported from FRC teams and have a good understanding of what FIRST is about but there are those that are run by persons that are doing the best they can and are not getting the support from the schools or the parents that they need and need our help. The different areas that are covered by FLL are great but one person can teach the projects well but not the robot builds. Another can teach team work well but not the project. It is hard for a one mentor team to do it all. If we could let all the mentors of FLL know that this forum is here and has a lot of information, other mentors to talk to and Links to helpful sites they would feel a little les overwhelmed. Just like FRC sharing ideas can always help.
