** Build Robot **
====** We found it quite difficult to build the robot, there was so many parts and so many instructions to follow. As a group we got it done quickly and quietly while being co-operative with other members os the group. **====

** Explore robot ** **educator**
====** In the second week we had the chance to explore robot educator. It is a fun and exciting program that helps up to improve our robot and use our brains. We found robot educator is a program that programs your robots knowledge to its ability. **====

**Pedestrian challenge**
==== **The pedestrian challenge was very challenging as for we had to make the robot go to a certain distance and come to a stop on a line, we just missed the target. For that task we got a 8 ,which was pretty good for our effort.** ====

**360 turn**
==== **The 360 turn was a exciting and interesting task which made us use our mathematical abililities. To figure our perfect 5 worthy marked 360 turn out we challenged our selves. We realised when we did put the degrees on 360 it only did a half turn so then we new that if we doubled the number being 720 it would be a perfect circle (360 turn). For this task we got full marks 5/5.** ====

**Snake**
==== **In the snake challenge there was a lot of problem solving and it took us a while to do. We used loop turn to accomplish the snake and when we got it evenly to the half way mark and went to reverse it we realised that we would have to do the opposite of what we did on the way up. For this activity we got full marks 5/5.** ====

**2-D shape- nonagon**
==== **For our nonagon we learnt to take it one step at a time. We worked throught it slowly and found it quite easy. Then we decided we partly know what our dance is going to look like so lets try a harder shape and we can get a higher mark for it. We have partly finished and next week we will just make an adjustment and we will get it as we know what we have done wrong.** ====

**1/11/2011**
==== **Today we completed a nonagon. It was a really fun activity were we got to choose a 2D shape of our choice. We choose a nonagon because we wanted to receive a 5/5. Guess what we got? __5/5!!!!!!!__ Our robot was VERY inconsistant today and me, Sophie and Macy were very angry! But the we praised it for getting 5. We actually got a 4 1/2 at the start but we were very puzzled because we tried it 3 times and it stayed in the right spot. So we tried again and it worked! So we got it re-marked and it worked! so we got a 5!** ====
