Notes from Oct. 22

The robot needs to accomplish the missions!!!!!!!!

Sensors and attachments used in surprising ways.

Easy, removable parts.

The Nano Stormers need a logo. Check them out and let us know what you think.

FIRST Lego League (FLL) is an international program for kids from 9-15 years old.  It is a partnership between FIRST and LEGO .

On September 15, FLL announced this year's Nanotechnology Challenge.  The kids work as a team to design a robot to complete up to 9 missions and do some scientific research.  Everything is on the theme of nanotechnology.

On November 25, the NanoStormers will be competing in the FLL Vancouver tournament against 40 other teams!
