STEAMsport Competition and Showcases

STEAMsport, Inc. strongly believes in increasing our students’ exposure through participating in STEAM competitions. This gives our students an opportunity to showcase their new STEAM skills as well as interact with other students that have similar STEAM interests.

Competitions STEAMsport, Inc. students participate in include:

FIRST LEGOLeague Challenge

The FIRST LEGO League Challenge is an international competition organized by FIRST for elementary and middle school students. Students are introduced to a scientific and real-world challenge for teams to focus and research on. The robotics part of the competition involves designing and programming LEGO MINDSTORMS robots to complete tasks. The students work out a solution to a problem related to the theme (changes every year) and then meet for regional, national, and international tournaments to compete, share their knowledge, compare ideas, and display their robots.
