Take a summer road trip with Bedtime Math
We’re joining Bedtime Math this summer to give teams & families a great tool to make math (the M in STEM) fun! Kids can solve fun nightly math problems, track their progress on a map, and snap a photo by a special landmark in their state to get inspired for the upcoming season. This is a fun, free activity that kids can do together as a team or individually! Learn more.

CELEBRATION and SHOUT-OUTS  

Shoutout 07.19.19
 
Last week, some of our friends in the UK gathered for an Expo at a local university. Kids who aged up to FIRST® LEGO® League helped with reviewing – we love to see the learning experience come full circle!
  
How’s your team gearing up for BOOMTOWN BUILD? Let us know with a tweet to @firstlegoleague, or email us at firstlegoleaguejr@firstinspires.org. Then, watch this space. In the next blast, we may be shouting out to YOU!
