Welcome to the Team 6763 page
General To Do
- Food Safety Project
- Brainstorm mission plans
- Select a robot design
- Work on programs and robot configurations/attachments for each mission (perhaps in pairs?)
- Finish building sink
- Build new NXT robot
Prepare for the Sept 18 meeting
- We need to get our parental consent forms submitted very soon, to reserve a spot at a local competition. Attached is a copy, or click here: http://www.playingatlearning.org/FLL/2011/2011_FLLConsentFormEnglish.pdf. I'll also bring some blank ones Sunday. Please read, sign, and leave with your coaches.
- Think of 2 excellent team names, and write them on a piece of paper. Then we'll vote on the name.
- Think about the food safety project. What is one food and problem you would like to see solved? Write it down.
- Bring your Lego NXT and a laptop. (Let's also remind the kids to try not to mix the kits/parts.)
Sept 11 meeting notes
- For the food safety project:
- Each Team Member―— Look around your kitchen. Make a list of 5 foods you found and how each one is stored. Now, find out how you got each one. Did you grow it yourself? Did you bring it home from a market or store? Was it delivered to you? Did you pick it from an orchard or garden? Did a relative, neighbor, or friend give it to you? Think about how each one was protected
from contamination. Think about how each one was protected from spoiling.
- Discussed team names. Nothing jumped out that was better than Hurricanes.
- Mission planning: We broke into pairs, working on these missions.
- A1 & J: Rats, Thermometer, Pollution reversal
- A2 & S: Timer and Corn Harvester
- R & W: Fish, Refrigeration truck (also Pollution reversal)
- K: absent
- Each pair presented their idea to the group.
Sept 4 meeting notes
- Went over all 15 missions, and some of the rules
- Brainstormed team names
- Selected "favorite" missions that we want to start with:
- A1: Rats and Thermometer
- A2: Timer and Corn Harvester
- J: Pollution reversal, Thermometer
- K: Timer, Groceries to Table
- R: Fish, Refrigeration truck
- S: Rats and Polution Reversal
- W: Fish, Refrigeration truck
- The TimeBots team is building a new board, so we can use their old board.
- We will need someone to volunteer to store and transport the board.
- Atmel will sponsor our teams if we use their name as part of our team name, and put their logo on our shirts.
Parent Helper ideas
- T-shirt "project" -- get kids to agree on a design. Create the design. Get kids' sizes. Have shirts made.
- Science Report project: help kids get started, focus their efforts
- Report? Skit? Practice presentations
- Rule expert & FAQ monitor
- Help the kids absorb the 20 pages of missions and rules. Check the website FAQ for rule clarifications.
- Build a 4x8' board
- (Joe volunteered, but we can also use last year's board! The TimeBots team is building a new board.)
- Store/Transport 4x8' board as needed
- Snacks! (If you want to sign up, go here: snack schedule or email me and I'll add you.
- Transportation to November events
