Second Day

Once we arrived at Bethlehem School, we got divided into our groups like we did last week. One half did planning and the other half was to try to complete our challenge that we got from the teachers. The challenge was to programme the robot to go around two milk bottles and form the figure 8. We had to use the programming software this time, and also show the little kids how it worked. We just about completed our one but the time was up. After that it was morning tea and everyone was having a ball (I played forceback with the little kids which was awesome.) Then it was the hands off robot time. For this we had to draw up our plans for the forrest floor. After a while we all decided on one plan, and we drew it up. Then it was time to move on to the big sheets of paper. For that time we only got 4 sheets of A3 bits of paper and drew a little bit on, but the whole forest floor will be 6x6. So it will be quite big! Almost everything on the the forest floor will be 3D, so the houses, tree's, logs etc. Time flew by and before we knew it we were back at the bike rack getting ready to ride back to school.
That was the coolest time we've had there yet. We all also decided that the yr 4's would build tree's and the yr 8's would build the houses.
All of us can't wait to see each other again and see what each other has built!
