Jr. FLL & FLL

What an awesome weekend we all had here in Delhi! I got to take by 12 Jr. FLL & FLL students to competition.

Creature Reports knocked it out of the park! Their energy is just contagious! They loved running around and meeting the other teams and seeing what the other teams built. I love seeing students from different schools and clubs interact.


Food Chain did great for their first year! I was really proud of their project - Magical and Mysterious Malabar Civets. They want to create an awareness for the Malabar Civet which is a unique animal from India! They did a lot of research and even created their own pamphlets and business cards. I couldn't be more proud of them.

Their robot was good too. They got a little nervous at the game table and attached the wrong attachment, but that's okay. We definitely had some teachable moments there. Especially on how not panic when things go wrong and how not to place blame on teammates when they make mistakes. We all have to work together to get things done. Getting angry or upset only made things worse. We had a good heart-to-heart talk after the meet and some life lessons were taught. I'm excited for this team, because they were one of the youngest there and this is just the beginning for them!
