Robotics

Aaron and Hannah both participated in Lego Robotics in an afterschool program last year.  They didn't go to competitions, but learned the basic building and programming skills.  This year in middle school, Aaron has the opportunity to participate in Robotics at his school.  They build the Lego robots and program them to do certain tasks.  Only ten members of the robotics club were selected to go to the competition and Aaron was one of the lucky ones.

It was interesting to see what is in involved in a competition.  The teams run their robot through several different heats and are scored by judges.  Aaron's team won a trophy for "Most Innovative" and they scored high enough to move on to the regional competion in January.

 

 

 

I'm very glad that Aaron enjoys Robotics.  He doesn't like school, so any positive experience he has there is a bonus!!

 

P.K. decided we should go out to dinner to celebrate.  Aaron chose his favorite, Marietta Fish Market.
