Step 0: Think About ItWhen you turn on the faucet, drink from a water bottle, or
flushed the toilet, have you ever thought about what allows us to do this? Share situations like these with your team. What
improvements could be made?
People use water every day, but they don’t think much about how and why they use water. Whether it’s directly (drinking or washing)
or indirectly (manufacturing the products they use or producing food or energy), humans have a lot of different water needs. Your
Project challenge for the HYDRO DYNAMICS sm season is to improve the way people find, transport, use, or dispose of water.
![Page 17: FIRST LEGO League Kick-off 2017 · 2019-12-19 · Core Values • We are a team. • We do the work to find solutions with guidance from our coaches and mentors. • We know our coaches](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041520/5e2dfba34eb67d0d6d21179f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Step 1: Identify a Problem
Ask your team to think about all the different ways that people use water.
Have your team pick a situation in which people use water, then identify a specific problem they want to solve.
![Page 18: FIRST LEGO League Kick-off 2017 · 2019-12-19 · Core Values • We are a team. • We do the work to find solutions with guidance from our coaches and mentors. • We know our coaches](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041520/5e2dfba34eb67d0d6d21179f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Suggestions
As a Team - Choose a situation involving water• Look for clarification.
As a Team - Identify a specific problem with the way people interact with water.

Step 2 - Design an Innovative Solution
Design an innovative solution to your problem that adds value to society by improving something that already exists, using something that exists in a new way, or inventing something totally new.
![Page 20: FIRST LEGO League Kick-off 2017 · 2019-12-19 · Core Values • We are a team. • We do the work to find solutions with guidance from our coaches and mentors. • We know our coaches](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041520/5e2dfba34eb67d0d6d21179f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Suggestions
As a Team - Think about:• What could be done better? What could be done in
a new way? • Could your solution make people more productive,
healthier, or happier? • How can you reimagine the way we work with
water?
![Page 21: FIRST LEGO League Kick-off 2017 · 2019-12-19 · Core Values • We are a team. • We do the work to find solutions with guidance from our coaches and mentors. • We know our coaches](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041520/5e2dfba34eb67d0d6d21179f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Step 3 - Share With Others
Share the solution you designed with others. Consider including someone who could provide feedback about your solution.
Getting input and improving are part of the design process for any engineer. Don’t be afraid to revise
your idea if you receive some helpful feedback.

Suggestions
As a Team - Think about who your solution might help.• How can you let them know that you have solved their
problem?• Can you present your research and solution to people
who work with water?• Can you share with a professional or someone who
helped you learn about your problem?• Can you think of any other groups of people who might
be interested in your idea?

Step 4 - Present Your Solution at a Tournament
Prepare a presentation to share your work with the judges at a tournament. • Your presentation can include posters,
slideshows, models, multimedia clips, props, costumes, and more.
• Be creative, but also make sure you cover all the essential information.

Suggestions
Be creative with how you share your work–use the talents of your team members!
A website, video, talk, or skit could work well!
