Lots of progress has been made in the last couple of weeks. We've got a couple of the challenge tasks accomplished, and had a lot of our team questions answered, thanks to reading the FLL Forum pages.

October 16, 2008 - Field Trip

We're researching biofuel as a part of the science project that we will be presenting at the Lego League competition. We took a field trip to the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service building to visit with Dr. Samy Sedaka, a UALR Assistant Professior in the Department of Agriculture. He explained how biofuel is made, showed us how to do it (on a very small scale, of course), and told us all about what we wanted to know.

 

 

Presentation Posters 10/23/08

Now that we've learned some details about biofuel, it was time to put some of our knowledge into poster form that we can use during our science presentation at the Lego League competition. We worked a little on the robot programming too, but today was mostly busy making sure we got a good start on our posters.

And after we were done, we had wonderful brownies made by our official team chef!
