• Would you still do FLL even if there were no awards? Why?

  • I will still do it at least we will have lots of fun building lego together.

  • (Daniel) I would still do FLL because it's all about having fun. For example, we had fun during the robot game at the competition

  • Helping, Caring, Loud, Funny, and Inspiring

• How do you all know each other, and how did the team get together?

  • We all knew each other because some of us were from our soccer team, some of us were from our Chinese school, and some of us we were just friends. But we all like Lego, so we make a good team.

• What happens if a team member is not getting his/her job done?

  • we will help them accomplish their challenges by working together.

• What’s the most important thing you learned this season? 

  • (Daniel) The most important thing we learned this season is teamwork because if we didn't have teamwork then we wouldn't have any good ideas.

The Robot Design Team prepared a slide highlighting key areas of the robot design:

Chicken-Printer-Stage Attachment

Brandon worked with Coach Will on finalizing and testing the “Chicken-Printer-Stage” Attachment. It looks very promising, assuming things go the way planned, which they rarely do.
