We were each given an identical crossword puzzle, and our goal was to find as many of the 24 words in the puzzle. We could communicate and work on our own, but the point of the activity was teamwork.
We found every word as a team except one word. Our coach gave us obvious feedback: double check your work! However, we did really well and got it done nicely.
Afterward, another coach presented us with the same two robot designs we agreed to build in our previous meetings: the Box Robot 3 and the SUV robot.
With the robots in front of us, we looked and each of the components and features of each robot. We saw some ways we could improve and how each robot was better and both worse than the other robot. We will build a final robot and try them out, make some changes, and make other improvements later.
We also established some guidelines for dealing with the pieces, like when building, we have to be careful to keep the pieces organized.
Finally, we watched a TED talk about how cities are solving problems efficiently, and uniquely, and also discussed what we learned in the video.

That's all for week 7!
