The kids robot performing its first tasks!

Recently the kids STEM Robotics team had their Co-Opertition Event to test their robot.  They had two practice rounds to see how their robot performed on the new map for the upcoming competition.  The first tasks went smoothly, but they had a hang-up on one of the targets towards the end.  It was a good trial run to see what areas they need to work on for their robot.  The team did really well and had a good turn out.  They have learned a lot through their STEM Club.

In between sessions the leaders of the group brought a bunch of cool activities for the kids to do to pass the time (crossword puzzles, photos to cut out, poster boards to make, coloring books, puzzles, crafts, blocks, and more fun stuff).  The kids had a blast and the time between sessions flew by quickly with them doing the various fun activities!  Good Job Teachers for thinking ahead!  The teachers also brought fresh fruit, nuts, and bottled water as a snack for the kids.

Thankful for the teachers and volunteers who invest so much time and energy into the kids and STEM Club.  They really are outstanding and foster a true love of learning.  STEM Club has been a truly amazing learning, team building, and educational experience for both of our kids.  The first thing the leaders said when joining the team is “It will be the hardest fun you will ever have!” They expect all the team members to work hard, but they have fun learning together!
