Music Videos and Robot Design

Last Night the kiddos worked on their parodies, robot design and discussed projects. This weekend the boy team will continue recording their video(5pm at Kozlek home), and on Sunday there will be a Lego build party. More information to follow. It will most likely start 11:30 am and be in (church, or borough building). As soon as we know the details, we will post more info. The build party is to help build the second mat’s mission pieces. 

Students should have access to a cell phone device for direction pieces or preload pdf files to a tablet device from Fll website: http://www.firstlegoleague.org/missionmodelbuildinginstruct… (we usually don’t print files as they are 30+ pages for each mission, and easier to see in color on a device).

Gummy Bears and Godzilla

We had another fun night at robotics! After visiting a rain garden, the ladybots voted and came up with a game plan for their project! 🐠💦. The girls also started thinking of robot design!

The Brobots decided on the parody songs, started programming their first mission, and will begin work on their project next week.

During our core values game: We all learned that when it comes to war, our children are ruthless. No fear of Godzilla attacking the library. 

See you next week! 

Agenda: Ladybots start designing project, work on song

Brobots, one team work on solving mission, second team design blueprints for app, third team storyboard music video and choreography. 

See you next Wednesday! Beware random trails of gummy bears.

Project Ideas and Robot Design

Thank you everyone for coming out to robotics last night! 

The ladybots are off to a great start under the direction of Coach Alison and Coach Casey! They hashed out some lyrics for their parody, discussed ideas for their project and explored the game board.

The boys also examined the new challenges for this year including upgrades to their robot. They have a mash up idea brewing for their parody, but are still on the fence for project ideas. We'll explore that more next week after we program our first mission.

The team challenge/core values activity this week was pictionary! It was cool to see our budding artists and interpretative work.


Looking forward to next week! Stay Sharp Bots 

New Season for the Code Crackers

At tonight's first meeting, the ladybots versed the brobots in a puzzling game of wits and speed. The ladies were a bit quicker, but the boys were first to negotiate a trade deal. Everyone was a winner in the end with coach Alison's outstanding Lego robotic cupcakes!!! 🤖🎂

Students also learned a bit more about FLL and this year's hydrodynamics challenge. All challenge resources can be found here: https://www.firstinspires.org/resource-library/fll/hydro-dynamics-challenge-updates-and-resources(coaches handbook, videos, rules etc)

Next Wednesday girls will start off first at six, and boys will come at seven. Robot Design and Mission Planning will be on the agenda.

Have a wonderful week!
