Strategy and Progress Towards the Championship!

Today was our first meeting between the qualifying tournament and the State Championship tournament. First, we set some goals for what we want to do before the championship.  We plan to make a Core Values introduction script for that judging session, and our new goal for the robot game is to score 300 or more points.  We scored 238 at our qualifying tournament.


We assigned "facilitators" to each task to improve communication and teamwork, and to transfer more responsibility to the team members for making progress.

Core Values Introduction
Emmett and Damek came up with a basic outline for the introduction, and the rest of the team will write their lines as homework this week. 

Robot Game
Luke and Kenny and Eden worked on the robot today.  Working together, they got the man by the house captured and brought to base.  When he is delivered to the red zone, we get 66 more points, which puts us over 300!  We are now thinking about doing another mission as well.  For homework this week everyone is thinking about which missions we should consider trying to solve next.
