This is our first practice after break. We started by eating snack and talking about what we would be doing today. Then we wrote down what we would want to eat on our last practice together. After that we moved onto programming and perfecting our core values poster. Then we cleaned up and left.

Today we worked on programming and had a pizza party. Veni brought treats and Mrs. Hinmon brought treats too. Today we also worked on adding more to our Core Values poster, PowerPoint slideshow, and binders.
Mia Today Camdyn and Brandon were absent, both of them were sick, and our mentors were gone too. I programmed by myself because Camdyn is my partner. Brandon and Veni are partners too, but since Brandon was not there Veni worked on the app with Carlos. Jayadev programmed by himself while Mia made new front pages for our binders and Isabel who is her partner worked on the website. We hope that our Water Warrior friends get well soon!
Thank You! - Lydia We were getting started on the day and we did announcements, then I got to show an app maker that you can ACTUALLY PUT DATA LIKE WE WANTED. So I showed it and my team liked it, then we started later on. Then we did a team work activity and it was good for the most part. Then we started doing work. Then someone had to give up their robot so another group could program and my partner and I decided to give up. We were fine then we started our improvement to our app, The B.W.W. We also worked on the binders and skit PowerPoint today.
================================================= Merry Christmas -Carlos Today, the ottumwa courier came to interview. We presented our skit and told them about our problem and solution. When they left, we started programming. Me and Carlos were programming and we built an attachment that is going to work for "slingshot,water collection and faucet.
-Jayadev Thank You! Today we worked a lot with the robot (Poseidon). First I made a mini helmet for him. Then most of the team worked on programming we had some great ideas. We got our rubrics back from competition and decided on what to improve. We had a lot of ideas for the robot table which we worked on a lot. Mia made more business cards. We got a lot done!!!!
-Talise Competition was so fun and a great experience! We all thought we did very well with explaining how we built our robot, and answering their questions about our robot, Poseidon. Everyone thought we did well with presenting our skit and all the parents enjoyed it. All of us remembered our lines, which was very challenging for the kids with a lot of parts! For our first robot run we got 100 points, but we didn't do so well for our last two runs as the first time. We held the record all day until the end of the day when two teams got more points than us! (Dang it!) After eating lunch we went to closing ceremonies and got the award for Core Values in first place! Soon after we discovered we were moving on to state competition!
Today at practice we got ready for a special guest from the school board to come and interview us about our accomplishments. We presented our skit to her and gave her all the information possible about our problem and solution! Soon after she left we started talking about what we did well on at competition and what we needed to work on. Then we discussed what our next step would be in improving upon everything else. But after talking we realized we were out of time and we needed to go, we got a lot of things done including knowing what our next steps should be! -Kate and Camdyn (: Today we practiced for competition we did our Core Values and robot runs, as well as our skit and technical! We also finished binders, tomorrow we are looking forward to getting as many points on the table as possible.
-Mia Today we practiced our Core Values activity, we did so, so we would be ready to do Core Values for real at competition! We also finalized for sure what our line up for robot run is. Some of us looked up on the computer the differences of cost between the good quality water and the bad quality water. After that we did both our technical and skit so we would be completely ready for competition.
-Camdyn Today the Izaak Walton League, Doyle from the Ottumwa Water Pollution Control facility and a couple of parents came to today's practice and we presented to them our skit, Technical and Core Values. At the end they asked us some hard questions and we answered them as best as we could. Even though it is competition week and the pressure is on, we are still trying our best.
