Good luck to the Minecraft Bees Robotics Team.
The team is in the FLL Challenge. FLL Challenge engages students in hands-on robotics design and authentic scientific research. FLL Challenge is a worldwide program for students in grades 4 - 8 created in a partnership between the For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology program and the LEGO Company.
The Minecraft Bees qualified in December for the sectional tournament where they will be competing against 23 other teams this Saturday at Centralia JH.
The girls have worked really hard to build and program a robot to solve the missions for this year's theme, Unearthed. They created a reporting system for Madison County residents to alert a state archaeologist about a potential archaeological site. Their robot operates autonomously (no remote control, all Python based programming) for 2 minutes and 30 seconds to get the most points possible.
