This is our team. It appears we aren't good at holding still:)

 This is me, Vroom Vroom🏍. We were all very tired that day.
This is me, Fire Cat🔥🐱,  on the left. We had lots of fun but it was very tiring.
Hey, Pygmy Puff 101 here!🐹  (Farthest on the Right)  😀 I LOVED the competition! Problem was, I had a hard time sleeping because I had SEVERE cramps in my feet from walking so much.
 Hi, this is Brooklyn👧! I was really, tired. (as you can tell).


 Howdy! Cowboy here! 🤠! I am in this picture along with Percy Jackson. He is on the left, and as you can tell, he is very tired and grumpy. 🙁← That looks like him. I am on the right and happy, optimistic, and beautiful as ever. 😁!  I have no clue how the weirdos behind me are. 😕

I AM NOT TIRED AND GRUMPY!!! 👿 Gee cow guy, I'm not that kind a guy🍟 🔪  😄 👿 😈.





I AM RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's me on the Left. I didn't like it so much toward the end. 😐 But I had my book. 😌 Bye!


WE MADE IT TO STATE! GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE OTHER TEAMS WHO MADE IT TOO!

This is Coach Jenny chiming in. Our team did well in all of their areas in order to get to state. For the Values presentation they used their poster and did well coaching each other in the challenge section.

I was extra proud of their skit in the project presentation, and we even got some more ideas for researching from the questions there. They stayed strong although it was quite a long day with a lot of walking all over campus.

Our robot long program did really well on our first two rounds, but had a malfunction on the third. That was a little disappointing, but we did win the programming award, so we were proud of that.We are looking forward to the state competition in February now.

Cowboy says: These are some of our T-Shirt design ideas.  Mine are the ones with C3PO in it. Pygmy Puff 101 says: We each drew one, I drew the one that shows BB8, R2D2, and BB8 has a glass of water. Percy Jackson's is the most violent. Can you guess which one? (AT-AT) RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR says: I drew the one with the upside down trash can with a sink on top. MMMMMMMM.

December: Scrimmage Time!

Image
Hey Everyone, This is Coach Jenny chiming in. We have had a busy November and December, making tons of progress in a short amount of time. We had a chance to reach out to Rico Delsesto, Assistant Professor of Physical Science/Chemistry at Dixie State University. He helped us find some answers to our questions about safety gloves in the water.  We look forward to sharing what we learned with the Search and Rescue soon. We had a breakthrough on our programming when we found this video about how to program with the gyro to make your robot go in a straight line.   This is us designing our t-shirts in photoshop. Working on more programming and testing our program.   And here we are the day of the scrimmage. Scrimmages are fun because they are a low stress way to experience what it will be like at the competition.  This is us in the practice tables room. We were across from the Savage Squirrels for this practice round. We learned a lot from watching other teams i

Into Orbit 2018-2019

Image
Hey Friends, This year we have tried something new. We gave everyone separate roles in our team, so we could specialize more in programming, presentation and project development, and engineering. This has helped us have smoother meetings and streamline our work. We are loving it so far! We have been working on the Into Orbit theme. We decided to work on the problem of how to spend free time in space on a long journey. We talked to and emailed a local counselor, Susan Richey, and a Psychology professor, Grant Corser. They helped us with some of the psychology side of the problem. We decided to make a game board that includes creative games as well as less competitive ones to help improve social activities. One of the judges at the scrimmage photographed above mentioned to use larger cards, so we thought that would be good too. We are looking forward to trying our programs and presenting our solution at the DSU state qualifier this weekend!
