The Problem Solvers.

Today was very successful, even after Connor and I were away from the previous 2 weeks. We were getting the girls to participate in everything and ended up with a wonderful large tree. We also had many trees produced by the girls. It was after that we found that one of girls had made a bridge and it was perfect. We had a quick snack with a bit of basketball, and we were off to it again. Connor and the girls made a lake, troll fingers and loads more while I was stuck with the very boring job of drawing the black line that the robot has to follow. After I had finished my very long job we found a robot with the right programming and sent off on the big journey(the track). We found some corner mistakes and problem solved like taking candy from a baby. Soon we hit another dilemma, we found that the robot would not follow the line on the bridge, due to the different colour of the cardboard. We instantly found a solution, and that was to put white tape down the sides of the black line, making the robot go over it with ease. But before we knew our session was over and that was to be our last time we would be over at Bethlehem School for the term.
