There where a few problems but nothing we couldn’t handle. the bottom has broken but we will have that fixed by the end of the day I hope. I have also talked with estaban and kathryn about what to call or awsome robot, so far we have come up with “transformer” “bumblebee” and “mario” still unsure on what to call it though

After many hours of worked, i came to realize that we were closer than i expected. I worked on getting the electrical done, setting up the kicker and building parts to strengthen the robots structure. We Finally got the robot moving, we tested the robot on the bumps plenty of times and we experimented on different ways to approach the bar on the structure, It was a successful try. Im feellin’ gud!

  6. robot page

  10. all the translations for all the pages
  • They are done and or still in progress.

Things that still need attention:

  • formatting of all the pages
  • looking at the rubric and going over it.
  • checking to see if all the parents signed up so we can submit the page.

Thanks to Tania, we have been getting translations done. Thank you for your hard work and dedication Tania. All the other students and the mentors are working very hard to meet the deadlines that are approaching. At the team meeting today, we worked on choosing a team name, robot name, and the motto for our team. Every student wrote their ideas and later, they will be voted and that would result as our final names and mottos. This is what  happened as of right now.
