This year our school started a Lego Robotics Club. It was an exciting and stressful adventure. The kids hard work paid off this past Saturday at the First Lego League competition. It was an exhausting fun filled day. Jake's team was named Foodstruction (this years theme of the competition was food related problems). Foodstruction gave a presentation about the listeria outbreak associated with cantaloupe before they got to the robot competition. The kids had to program their robot to accomplish certain tasks on the playing field. Foodstruction took 13th place out of 28 teams. Here are some pictures and I hope to put the video on here later.
Getting their robot ready-competition lasted 2 1/2 minutes.
They got 3 rounds to get their best score.

This was serious business. Lots of rules and regulations.
They were also judged on robot design and team work.
Jenna missed the whole lego competition to play at the school's Santa Breakfast.
